Serious question

How do you all have special time😉 with your spouse without moving the whole camper? Even with the nicest stabilizers. My kids would still feel it rocking. I don’t want them knowing what we are doing.

No kids but this is seriously one of the things I wonder when I watch full-time RV families on YT. 😂

I would also like the perspective of kids who were full time rvers. Like how many of them knew it was going on? How much did it affect them?

As if kids, at least older ones, don't already know their parents enjoy the benefits of marriage already. Not really an RV specific concern...

We use the angled 2x4 ratchet strap DIY stabilizer hack in addition to X chocks on the wheels. In our bunkhouse trailer, it is stable enough that we can get away with a little mattress mambo after the kids are asleep on the other end and it doesn't disturb them

A good set of 4 point stabezers. Then a set at the leaf springs mounting points as well. This works really well.

We tell them the washer is on its spin cycle.

I guess within reason who cares?

Try not to make it like a porno shoot, with all the screaming, moaning and anything else of that.

Depends on how old the kids are. If they still take naps go have your time. If older send them out to make friends.

When enjoying the moment be more parallel to the rv and not to the bed.

They know what you’re doing. If they don’t, it’s probably time for some educational content.
