[quote=Anonymous]If my kid is repeatedly requesting something that is incompatible for me (ex: disrupting my sleep) I try to figure out what's behind it. So. Would a bigger or heavier blanket help? Does he like to be tucked? Could you tuck the sides into the bed? I'd talk to my kid, NOT at bedtime, about what he's thinking. I have a kid who is sensitive to how things feel. He's now almost 8 and is STILL sensitive to how things feel. But one thing I've learned is that I can not talk him OUT of feeling this way. And it's always made much much worse by trying to smooth it over and solve it for him in the moment. Talking about it, NOT in the moment, is very helpful for both of us.[/quote]
