I think even a seven year old can be told "Don't bother us for a while" as you disappear into a bedroom without scarring him for life. And sharing affection with your spouse is a good way to show your kids that marriage is a way for two people to be happy and loving for life and not a prison where two people expect each other to live joyless and celibate lives.
a fine and enviable madness, this delusion that all questions have answers, and nothing is beyond the reach of a strong left arm.
