I would lay with my Daughter in her bed until she fell asleep... then I started telling her I would only be there until she was asleep.. then I would be there until she almost fell asleep. then it was the tuck in and chats until it's now just tuck ins...no matter
what it is you choose, it's going to be hard work... it's the price you pay for being a loving and patient parent... |

I had that problem when my child was 2 y/o. I talked to a sleep disorder clinic. I put the child's bed right next to mine and slept with my back to the child. There was crying. The clinic had me look at the child and pat the child on the back at timed intervals. Each time, the interval lasted longer. It was a long night but it worked. Eventually I got the child's bed farther away from mine. Maybe call a sleep disorder clinic at one of the hospitals in your area. i am not resorting to a medical reason why she wants to sleep with me. she is not in need of medical care. she is an only child that is super bratty! and I guess that is what we need to break. Mine didn't have a medical reason and wasn't a brat. I just didn't know how to get the child out of the bed. I don't think of it as bratty. We're comforting and safe to them. |

figure out WHY she doesn't want t sleep alone. is she scared, worried, etc she is not scared. she said she just wants to sleep with me. she naps in her bed. I even moved her bed into my room I thought she just wanted to be next to me.. but she just wants to be up my butt... she is great birth control...lol maybe she wants more attention? ATTENTION??? she gets attention.. like I said she is a spoiled rotten only child. she is the only grandchild too. she gets plenty of atteniton... too much perhaps... that might be the problem. infact we dont even call her by her name she is "cinderella". she is the princess. I think maybe we do too much with her and for her. that could be why. maybe if it was on friday night or something special to sleep with mommy like more of a reward?? instead of it just being another one of her bratty behaviors |

In order to change her habits you will have to listen to her cry herself to sleep for a couple of nights. Nobody said parenting was easy.

Parenting is the hardest thing I have eve done or will ever do. no doubt. but children dont have to be forced to tears. It breaks my heart to hear her cry and I do all I can to make it where she does not have to cry. why do lessons have to be taught in a manner where the child ends in tears?

She will outgrow it. Soon she will be asking for sleepovers at her friend's houses.

Well I do not allow my children to have their way all the time! Therefor they are not spoiled brats. Children sometimes cry when they don't get their way and it doesn't hurt them one little bit!! I personally do not want to raise my children to be selfish out of control people and I do not believe that it will hurt them at ALL to not get their way on everything! JMO

It is hard to see your child cry, especially when it is something that is out of your control, like when they are sick. But you have to let them feel that emotion and release it. It would be nice if we could shield them from everything, especially with the world being the way it is.

My son snuck into my bed every night for years. Eventually they grow out of it

I loved sleeping with my kids when they were little. Sneaking out after she's asleep will help wean her off. Made my bedroom a sleep only area, so I see your point.

My girls are 4 and 7 and still sleep with me on occasion but it is by choice....not because they will throw a fit if I don't let them.
