[quote=Anonymous]You should not be in the bed, Op. It’s highly inappropriate. And you should also not be judging the mom for cosleeping with a small child or demanding the child transition to a big kid bed to accommodate you. Many kids have high emotional need for connection with parents at night and feel more secure and sleep better in their parent’s beds. Especially those who are away from their parents during the day, or are dealing with stress (like mom dating a new guy, ahem, or parents who have separated or divorced at a young age.) If you envision yourself being in this child’s life as a parent figure, being the reason he or she doesn’t get to snuggle and feel safe with mommy at night is starting off that relationship on a crappy foot. You need to develop more empathy if you are going to be a stepparent or parental figure. The kid is 4, not 13. [/quote]
