Help kids sleep alone?

Question

I have a daughter 3 and son 1 and half, my wife sleep with them
because they are scare of sleeping alone, what can i do so they
get just to sleep alone?

Answer 1

she should have never started that. That is going to be one of the hardest things to change. She will just have to lay with them and comfort them for a while, but before they fall asleep she needs to leave. if they get out of bed, put them back, if they cry let them cry, you are going to have some looooong nights trying to get them to sleep on their own. She needs to lay with them a little less each night, and not give in when they come out of bed or cry.

Answer 2

I wish I knew the answer to that. Is there some reason your wife wants the children in there or is it just because the kids want to be there? Our daughter, who is now 5, has had five seizures starting at almost 1 year old. From that first seizure until about a year ago she slept with us almost every night. We preferred it that way because we were so afraid she would have a seizure in her sleep (that only happened the first time) and that we would not be able to hear her having trouble. There was no way to stop the seizures, but knowing we were there made us feel better.

Answer 3

Just put them to bed alone and don't go back in there. They will cry for a few nights until they fall asleep but then you'll have your freedom back. If you worry about them you can get a camera for their room so you can watch them until they go to sleep.
