Default Re: My 7 yr old will not sleep by himself.

My eldest son went through a stage of not wanting to sleep by himself when his dad and I split up.
I had a 10 week old at that time too, so really needed him to sleep in his own room. I decided to decorate his room....he got to choose everything for it, colour, carpets, furniture.
At bed time we had a story and i`d stay with him until he was asleep. I always left the door open and the hall light on. He had glow in the dark stars and moons all over his ceiling too! It took a while but he now sleeps in his own room every night and has the door shut and the light off.
