Its funny how a church-sanctioned holiday has become the international day of getting laid, but thats Valentines Day for you.

But not everybodys getting profanely porked : for stressed parents, V-Day sex, or sex on any day at all, is a distant memory.

Its completely valid for parents to abstain from adult naptime . No privacy from kids (or at least, alone time not spent worrying if the door is locked or sneaking around like teenagers) is a big reason. The grueling pace of raising kids is a major factor in stamping out frisky urges , too.
