No, it's not obvious at all. But she has control over her behavior when needed. It has been an asset when there have been other people around. It's clear that you and TS miss such moments. đTRJBerg said:
You can skip the construction plastic. Then the part with the studs he mentioned is an important part of it.spikplanka said:

"depends" but yes probably a tight door is enoughP Peter_Ker said:

Which court would convict a married couple for having sex?
Social services committees that can make decisions outside the judicial system, and it's about them being able to act against people they consider to be outside their own norms. Even if you ultimately get justice, many tears may have been shed in the process.
I agree with that, but I find it hard to see it happening for this reason. How do you mean that parents could have sex at all if they have to walk around being afraid that social services will come and take the children?
The problem is that those making the decisions might not have children. Or have never had sex. And therefore lack understanding.
Those of us who are parents have had sex and probably enjoy it. Those of us who have several children have had to learn how to have sex even though a baby is sleeping in the same room. Or to send older children off to play with friends and have sex in the middle of the day.
Do not involve the children in the sex life in any way. Then they cannot let it slip. Also, keep the public out of everything that is private without exception.
Reply to P.S. - the children always sleep from 8 PM, but occasionally they have woken up. We have an outdoor camera that sends notifications if someone goes out/opens the front door. Having soundproofing is not the same as being completely disconnected.H Harald BlÄtumme said:
Yes, we are creative today and for those who think otherwise - YES, we can be quiet. The children come first for us, but one must also be a human and an individual with one's own desires even if one is a parent. I was just exploring how difficult it is with other solutions and what other solutions exist. I notice that the question and my pondering have stirred some emotions in people. I truly appreciate all the good answers I've received!H Harald BlÄtumme said:
What you notice when you dig deeper into arranging complete soundproofing is that it's not just about having heavy double/triple plasterboards on the walls, sensible beams against frames, etc. - there's plenty to read about how to set up a good sound studio, as mentioned.
It's also about ensuring that all electrical boxes are sealed so no sound is transmitted through the electrical conduits (surprisingly much sound can be forwarded through these), then making sure there is a heavy sound-rated door with proper sealing around so there are no gaps. Equally important is arranging sound-damped airflow so you have decent ventilation, as it should pull air from, for example, bedrooms at a reasonable pace but soundproofed.
I haven't had any reason to go all the way with this, but there are certainly people who want to, not just for the original purpose of the thread but to soundproof, for example, a rehearsal space or a sound studio. Or maybe to get some ideas on how to make a centrally located bathroom quite soundproof

Just leaky walls can cause issues...
Built an apartment dividing wall according to all the rules, meaning 2 independent walls with staggered studs, insulation, sealed both OSB and gypsum.
Yet a tenant complained that it was noisy from the neighbor on the same floor, especially in the bathroom.
Thought long and hard before realizing I left a 20*20cm hole in the wall for a vacuum valve.
The hole was behind a shoe shelf and 2m above, so the ventilation from the bathroom went in, screwed the hole shut and sealed it, and never heard anything more about them being disturbed.
