[quote=Anonymous]My 5 yo DS has anxiety at night. Scared of "monsters" "bad guys" "noises" "dying". It breaks my heart. We explain there are no monsters and have done the monster spray gig for extra protection. We explained bad guys will stay away because we have an alarm and a dog. we talked about all the things that could make noises in our house. And, talked about dying in all the age appropriate ways books have said to discuss dying with children. No one close to him has died but his GG is 97 and a Gpa who is 86. He knows they are old and worries about them dying. Any picture books that are good to read to him about any of these fears? Tonight I had him repeat, "I am safe" "My mom and Dad protect me" "I am loved" before bedtime. Seemed to help calm his fears as he was worked up a lot tonight. Usually when he is over tied he is more anxious.[/quote]
