Default Re: Isolation issue? or simple territorialism?

I agree with some of what you say but not all. Yes if the "family" wants the child to sleep in their own room then that is what they should work towards. However I do not think it is the place of any single parent (step or other) to decide this on their own.
If I ever divorced and remarried and my future husband said I could not sleep with my child in my bed anymore, well we wouldn't have gotten married in teh first place. ya know? It is just not that new parents position to make these life changing changes for the child.
To me if you marry someone that does something a certain way then that is the way it is done. Now that does not mean the new parent does not have an opinion, they should be at the same time it the parent who has been theres decision to make.
