Spread of HPV

Hi, I am a mother and wife. As with most parents and children all members of the family at one time or another eat after one another. I DONT KNOW if I have HPV/warts in my mouth, but I WAS diagnosed for sure with it in the genital area. IF I DO have it in my mouth, can I spread it to my child/husband by any of us drinking or eating from the same cups or utensils?
