am already having problem with my 3yrs old son...he has refused to sleep alone....so we still sleep together!!!!! i guess I'd make him work to pay for his bills


its just sleeping,, my son wasn't comfortable sleeping alone until about 7 or 8 and my daughter seems to be on the same track,,,


if you are determined though, to have her in her own room , you just have to do the work and keep putting her there until she gets tired of fighting it,,,maybe use positive reinforcement and get REALLY EXCITED when she wakes up in her room,,,,


sometimes psychology is helpful, when my daughter didn't want to give up the pacifier after her first birthday, we used new years eve , when all the fireworks and parties were gonna happen

we took her to the park where the fireworks were visible and people were laying out, and we told her it was a going away party for the pacifiers. We tied them all to balloons and we set them off at the end of the countdown and during the fireworks, worked like a charm,, when she slept that night, she was saying 'wow' in her sleep,,lol

just get creative, sometimes you can find good ideas on parenting sites too,,

thanks i will definitely try that

My Kids are 23,20, and 18...

no more diapers to change, runny noses to wipe or boo boos to kiss.

Now, it's Mom can I borrow your car, you got any extra cash I could " borrow"whoa yeah right, and I'm going to Florida for the weekend.

So, When is it time for the "It's time to move out" talk?
flowerforyou Tee you know i love you as a friend,You changed their diaper as a baby? You stopped breastfeeding and went to bottle then food? You devoted your life to raise them proper and i'm sure they are good Children, But now as Adults themselves its time for them to get into the swing of supporting themselves. You need your time and it seems this is almost impossible as they are still needing their butts and noses wiped. When a Man looks at you and sees Adult Children still depending on Mommy it either sends them running or you may end up with another Dependent by seeing you as an easy mark!! They will always be loved by you but its long past the time to cut the embiliculecord! Later they understand but now you are an easy ride in life, but how would they survive if something happened to you? Yes there is Welfare as well as other assistance originations out there that supports those who "can't" support themselves but do they qualify? Upstanding Citizens are needed in society, not another Burden to bear for All ! My Daughter has been on her own since she was 18. Yes i help when she struggles, but Haven't we All Struggled? That's Life. I won't give handouts unless their earned! Makes a Stronger Adult!!flowerforyou Your judgement, Your Children, Your choice!!love (Will) graywolf55




thanks friend yea your correct, I'll try to apply to my 2 kids my daughter she's turning 19 and my son 17 being a single parent is not easy university student and secondary..my pocket is always empty,,Asian culture is really different from western that's why kids even they're married still they depends to parents :smile: :smile:

flowerforyou I know the custom there. But who is the condemned one? It doesn't matter what others think,you are the parent of your Children not them! If they are so concerned-let them have them. Explain the situation to your children that its time for You!! Its your Health now that's concerned and the Stress from adult children can tear you down faster than any Disease!!:smile: Best of luck to you!
