If it's between two consenting adults, I think it should be legal. Yeah, 'ew' is not a valid reason to make something illegal. Roseanne Barr having sex is 'eww', but we don't ban her from having sex, nor should we. It'd have to be a case-by-case basis to determine if a parent exerted their influence from a position of power to form a relationship with their son or daughter.
I think most parents would be appalled by the idea of having sex with their children. So I don't think legalizing it would make it any more prevalent. As long as there's no harm being done, then nobody should face jail time. Maybe some psychiatric counseling, but not jail time.
