Maybe the long summer made us all feel a little hot and bothered. Or the adrenaline boost we got from watching the Paris Olympics got us pumped up in *other* ways. Regardless, parents seem to have sex on the brain this week. From highly relatable (a new crush on rugby dream Ilona Maher) to decidedly more dicey (is an office affair about to unfold?), the latest batch of secret revelations feels extra spicy.
Sex isn’t the only thing top of mind, though. Parents admit they’re struggling with being the default parent, juggling finances in a tough economy, being part of the “sandwich generation,” and more. Read on for the full roundup.
