About 9 days ago, my daughter was in the bathroom when she heard a mouse in the wall, ya know that scratching sound they make. So she called me in there, asked what it was & I didn't think to much about it so I told her oh it sounds like we have a mouse. She then became panicked, I explained to her it was ok they couldn't hurt her & that we'd caught it soon. As of that day she will not go to the restroom by herself, take a full bath only quick baths & will not sleep in her room without getting up numerous times. I feel like I have a baby again, I started off trying to explain to her there was nothing to be afraid of, the mouse was not in the house & our dogs or the traps we set would caught it soon. We did caught the mouse like 2 days later. We showed her we caught it hoping it would make her feel better, but no it didn't. I started off trying to be understanding but it's now become frustration, exhaustion & don't know what steps to take next! I've reminder her constantly the mouse is gone, nothing to be afraid of, mommy, daddy, sissy, the dogs & God are all watching over her she is ok & nothing to fear. We even took her to the pet store to show her some people have mice as pets, they will not hurt you their kind of cute even. Nothing has worked, she wakes every few hours, it's a battle to get her to stay in her bed. I've had to give in a few times & sleep with her on the couch because we needed sleep. I know it's not good to let kids get into a habit of sleeping in our bed so I'm doing my best to stay firm & help her with her fear, etc. But once we caught the mouse & it continued I don't know if she's really scared or just trying to sleep with us now. I've never had to deal with an issue such as this, any suggestions? Thanks
