I (20yo) am on vacation with my parents in a small apartment with paper thin walls. I already know what usually happens on vacations and so I’ve told my mother that I didn’t want to hear them having sex as it’s disturbing and disgusting when it happens. She told me people have needs and that I’m being an asshole for not covering my ears with headphones (that I didn’t bring at all). What the actual fuck? I’ve literally told her my boundaries and how disrespectful it feels to me, and she just acted like I was a childish dumbass, laughing in my face. For context, my mother is usually very supportive and not like this at all. My father is more complicated. I’ve threatened her with getting out of my room if I hear them doing anything but I don’t think that will do the trick. I’m afraid I’m just gonna have to suck it up and have my boundaries ignored. AITA for not understanding why is it so hard not to have sex for 7 days?

Edit: I see a lot of people saying I shouldn’t have come to start. I think it’s important to mention I didn’t really want to, but they were very insistent of me coming with them as they think the vacation is better with my company. I consider my boundaries the tradeoff, so I think it’s the least they could do
