Fetish life hidden
Although I consider myself to be very open-minded, I’ve always kept my personal fetishes away from my child. I think I’ve done my best to raise my kid with an open look at the world regarding various topics. Personally I believe in raising children in that way, without shaping them to become a clone of yourself. Just explore the world in your own way, question everything and be curious to learn as much as you can or want. I’ve always done things in my own way, and I want my child to do the same.
With that in the back of my head, we’ve always kept our fetish life hidden. Simply because I didn’t want to bother my child with my personal kinks and perversions. No child likes the thought of old people still engaged in an active physical romantic relationship, let alone a very kinky one. I was no different in my childhood years.
It can’t be unsaid
Yet my child knows about our private life because of nosiness. We keep all our fetish gear quite hidden. But once you open the doors of our wardrobe, there is no escape from the smell of latex and drawers full of gas masks, harnesses and BDSM gear. We keep most of our toys, restraints, etc. in an aeroplane trolley. Out of sight, but in reach.
Over the years we’ve had various talks that touched the subject, but we’ve never talked about it in-depth. Even our online presence has not been discussed, and sometimes I wonder if I should or not. Either my kid will be shocked, disgusted or proud. I just choose not to share this part of our lives. During the last open talk we’ve had, I said, ‘I can tell you what we do, but once said, it can’t be unsaid.’ And it stayed there.
Sharing is caring
The longer I am active in the fetish world, the more I talk to people with children, and we all handle it differently. Some share it; some keep it a total secret. If you want to share your story or vision on this matter, please take the time to send me a message. Any feedback is greatly appreciated and could possibly lead to another more in-depth write-up on this matter.
