When you have kids, “date night” turns into a fleeting and often disastrous occasion — and Valentine’s Day is no exception. We asked the HuffPost Parents Facebook community to share their worst date night stories, and in addition to countless responses of “What’s a date night?” and “I haven’t been on a date since 2006,” we received anecdotes about some seriously ill-fated date nights.
Here are 16 date night disasters from real parents:
1. “I thought my teenage son was spending the night at his friend’s house.” — Janet Klock
“I thought my teenage son was spending the night at his friend’s house, so my husband and I went out for a lovely dinner and movie and came home to a nice, quiet, dark house. We had sex like crazy loud teenagers, then sprawled out on the living room rug (naked) with a glass of wine. Guess who was NOT at his friend’s … my son. He came into the living room, saw us, freaked out, and said we had scarred him for life.”
