My husband and I are disagreeing... Sometimes our son age 12 (and autistic) will knock on our bedroom door while we are in the middle of sex. My husband will respond "In a little while." Then our son will come back in 5 or 10 minutes asking "Are you ready yet?" Sometimes we just don't finish because it ruins the mood. I think we should tell our son that we are being romantic and to leave us alone! Husband thinks it is weird to let him know what we are up to. I mean we're not going into detail ffs. Waiting until he goes to bed isn't an option. What have you done?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I would be concerned that too much information given to your son might dampen your husband's "enthusiasm" and that would not be good for either of you. I like the do not disturb sign.

Let him know: When the bedroom door is closed, you may not interrupt.

I can attest ..having worked with such boys in a school setting.. Whatever you explain to him will likely be run past his schoolmates and instructors 
How about a little ‘do not disturb’ sign/ face you can hang on your door knob ..in red. Be good about removing it, and diligent in placing it.

He is homeschooled but I also don't think it should be taboo that parents are intimate with each other. I could try something on the door and see how it works.
@soulless It doesn't have to be like shock but can be taken casually if he happens to come in. "Hey we're busy right now--"
@soulless You could also invest in a lock 
@Skeezwazzle Oh, it's locked lol.

@Skeezwazzle, @soulless ...I’m envisioning any number of former little sixth grade charges 
They could be very attentive, and persistent!
