Wow. This world is NOT rainbows and unicorns for everyone. This is a serious problem for so many.

My son's father keeps trying to get in my children's beds at night. After they are supposed to bed sound asleep. Multiple times a night...This just started. He never held them and cuddled as babies. But now? And because of people, like those on this clip, who haven't the same issue, might think of co-sleeping as cute, funny or acceptable - there's others doing everything they can to protect their children.

My children are 13 and 14. One is special needs. This subject should be taken seriously because for some, what comes with it is disturbing and unsettling. Today Child Services laughed it off, sort of like these ladies here. She downplayed it as cuddle time. I don't appreciate that nor do I accept it.

"It's none of your business" yep. That's why my ex shouldn't have a say what happens at my house as compared to his but here we are with him making false claims under oath that the courts are just taking as fact like he owns this town. || and he's not my oldest daughter's birth father.. he shared the bed with her last year. She was 10. And the court is like "yes let's give him the kids even though he lied under oath and we don't see this as a concern and aren't willing to ask why he's going through this much trouble to take these kids from an adept parent."

Tell them ghost monster aren't real. Kids don't need comfort grown people need it more than the kids

Conjugation with kids around can be tricky.
Can't guess what they see in their unconscious or conscious state.
3-5yrs should be a good time to move away from the communal bed.

I only sleep with them when I come back from vacation or the night before the the end of my long summer break and scary things

my uncle use to sleep in bed with his mom until 11 or 12 while my grand mother use to make me sleep in the room by myself even after watching a Freddy movie. I became for independent and fearless. My uncle was still living in the house with mommy when I was long gone at the age of 14.
