Most awkward talk you've had with your parents.

I don't believe I can top that. When I was 15 or 16 my mother found the rubbers I had in my duffle bag. She then said, she's glad I'm being smart but then lectured me on the importance of commitment, how some girls are whores and will trick you by pretending to be preggos (that happened to my older brother) and generally every bad thing that sex can result in. This wasn't bad in and of itself. (though she did drag my twin brother in to it "I'm only gonna say this once!") No what made it bad was how she closed this speech.
"Most of all though, remember to just relax otherwise you'll psyche each other out"
yeah...

At work my grandfather started talking to me and he was kind of slurring his words so i didn't know wth he was talking about and then he started about girls and having sex and contraception is bad but use a condom. (hes VERY catholic, and kind of screwed) yeaaaaaaaaah couldn't work there without thinking of that talk for a while.
Compared to other people I know, I don't talk to my parents that much. It's not that I don't get along with them, it's just that I have nothing to say to them. Sure, I might ask my father some chemistry related things (he's a PhD in radiation chemistry) once in a while if I'm wondering about something, but otherwise I'm estimating I say less than 10 lines to them per day.
Same goes for them, too, I think. We've got a sort of a mutual thing going on. Usually nothing even needs to be said. My parents and I are quite alike so no doubt they know as well as I do what's going on if something has happened and are smart enough not to ask if they know I don't want to talk about it.
I was never given The Talk either. Figured it out more or less by myself and then whatever I didn't know was cleared up in sex ed.
That said, once during a new years celebration my father pulled me aside and offered to call a girl and ask her out for me. I was 15, I think.
That's really the only thing I can think of. I'm a private kind of person and I don't like needless probing for information.
However, I recently recieved a pair of womens underwear from my friend as a christmas present, and he dared me to place them in the couch under pillows for my parents to find. I did, and they've mysteriously disappeared. I'm not sure wether or not I should ask what became of them.

My parents have always been open to talking about any topic, so tbh I've never had such a moment. Altho when my grandparents walked in and found my gf at the time in bed with me it was like, umm.... (we had cloths on and weren't doing anything, its just what they probably thought that made it an awkward moment).Triforceformer said:
Think of it from the other point of view. My nephew had been 'sexting' my brother, who is a single father, was deployed in Afghanistan at the time this left my nephew under I and my twin brother?s care for the 4 months he was away (different brother, I know it?s confusing). It was a horrible horrible conversation and I didn?t want to have it.Triforceformer said:
We pulled as much information as we could out of him before getting a hold of his dad. Who promptly told us to snap his son?s phone in half. My nephew was also forced to write apology letters to the three girls? parents. (He was showing the pictures around school). This was among a vast array of other punishments we were to carry out on behalf of his father. So not only did I have to have this horrible conversation. We basically had to have the conversation over and over during the next two or three weeks.
Did I mention that his principal showed my twin brother and I the pictures in question. I am not a fan of having 13/14 year old girls naked pictures shown to me. Nor am I a fan of being accused of being inattentive by a sweaty hexagenarian lady.
Eh, not any moment i can think of, i have an amazingly tight relationship with my parents.
Finding a used condom in my backseat inspires laughter in my family.

OT: When they found my weed which I had never had a chance to smoke, I confessed this to them and they laughed at me for my fail.
Mum asking if I was confident enough to buy condoms and if my girlfriend was on the pill and if not if she would be ok with going to get it or if she would like my mum to go with her and then versions of that conversation. Until she found my condoms of course, that was only one conversation
i dont think anyone here matches the akwardness of my situations... oh well better come out with it
when i turned 15 mum organised a suprise birthday party with all my family.
so at around 11 o'clock i decided to... well clean the old pipes well anyway just as im about to... get the drainage out of the pipes(?) my whole family walks in singing happy birthday i couldn't really put it back in fast enough but they just continued while i was making funny faces that made my cousin laugh (she thought i was coughing therefore the rapid body movements)
well as for "the talk" my cousin introduced my to porn at like age... idk 6 or so, so anyway i asked my mum where babies come from she said sex i replied "ok" and that was about it... dont see how people can find "the talk" so horrifying...
oh yea and one time i walked into them having oral while my cousin and her mum from holland (im an immigrant) were in the kitchen talking.
never in my life had i seen my dad so inbarresed all that resulted from that is me cracking up for about half an hour

Morning after going to a bar with friends, this happened during the whole sunday family breakfast thing:
Somehow the conversation came to the point where I had to admit I had been drinking wiskey the night before, and my mom was like "WHAT!?", and my dad was like "Really, which brands do you like, you should try ....".
It got very strange in a very short period of time..

"I'm giving you power of attorney, I need you to know what I want if I'm on life support".
Yeah, that was a fun one.
Otherwise, I have/had never been close enough to either parent to have any uncomfortable conversations.

Because they're fun.StarStruckStrumpets said:
That is a very good point, and one that I should probably bear in mind. Don't want to think about what might happen should I forget about that. But yes, it did help to share, thank you.sinclose said:
Oh, and I just thought of a few other humiliating parental experiences I've had... One was when I was eating dinner with my younger sister, my younger brother, my mum and her boyfriend, and the conversation somehow turned to anal sex. They ended up discussing it for about fifteen minutes, I kid you not. I was basically trying to hide myself behind my cutlery the whole time. And my sister was only about twelve at the time, too, and asked all kinds of terrible questions along the lines of "But how does it FIT?!" Good grief. O_O
Another time was when I told my mum that I'm bisexual... she laughed in my face. Perhaps more hurtful and inexplicable than awkward, but still.
I've never really had anything super awkward. But if I told them I was atheist and not Republican, I can imagine s=how awkward that would end up.
