My son is 7 years old and often comes and gets in our bed. Should I send him back to his or is he ok?

Answer 1

Take him back to his own bed, make sure he is safe and secure.It's hard to say ,'wait until he falls asleep', because you're probably dead tired yourself, but if you don't want this to get out of hand, you may have to wait for him to fall asleep for the first couple of times, then just keep doing what you're doing...... I'm sure you are a good Dad.

Answer 2

I think you should send him, because he will learn to respect your privacy, but at the same time it is a good idea to find out why is he doing it. If he is afraid of the dark a little night light can help.

Answer 3

for a little while it is ok, but you should send him to his own bed, he can make a habit out of it and then he will not want his own bed .

Answer 4

Its ok if you want him to get used to sleeping with you forever. You had better break him from it now. The longer you wait the harder it will be to make him sleep by himself. Good luck.

Answer 5

well i think that if u want, lay out a sleeping bag next to your bed so he can get used to sleeping alone and not sticking with his mommy or daddy. he eventually needs to be brave.

Answer 6

A lot of children do that, so it's perfectly normal. Besides, what's wrong with sleeping with his parents?

Answer 7

he is fine but dont make it a habit. once a week to once every 2 weeks. this is totally noraml but shouldnt become an every night thing.

Answer 8

you should try to bring him back to his room and stay with him a couple of minutes until he goes to sleep.

Answer 9

needs to go back to his, or you have a problem!!! he will be ok! find out whats bothering him, and deal with it!!

Answer 10

Take him back to his room make sure he feels secure. not good to let him stay...
