(sans kids) Again, how do they answer those questions. If everyone keeps the communication lines open, then this might be a fun and rewarding experience for all involved. Screw what other people think if they find out. You might learn something that you didn't know turned you or your partner on, or a place on him (or you) that is particularly sensitive from a multi-partner encounter. I would love to participate in such a group, (NOT an invite for a PM  ) but finding other ADULTS who are secure enough in their relationships, self confidence, and communication skills is practically impossible.
As for the kids, I guess that is up to you, their ages are an important fact left out here. If they are old enough to be asking more complex questions than 'where do babies come from', I personally would only honestly answer the questions they asked based on your experience, and not offer any more info. I would also follow group sex type questions (along with related ones) with the caveat that although LOTS of people participate in these activities, LOTS of others feel that this type of behavior is unacceptable. Because of that, there is an aura of unnaturalness surrounding anything other than 1 man on top, 1 woman underneath type intercourse. Tell them your opinions, and (importantly!) how you came to them.

I'd talk to him, but I already <i>know</i> what he thinks!

Pretty much the same for the group.
As for the kids, that's one of the things that is always lurking in the back of my head - a little dread that they're going to say something to the wrong kid, and then it's a frigging catastrophe. You never really know what goes on in a kids brain, though they know not to mention/talk about where people sleep... well, I guess the best I can do is hope that they understand the value of discression. Or they'll learn it, hm?
