[quote=Anonymous].. how and when did it end. My kid is scared when I’m not in the room as she falls asleep, so we usually stick around after she finishes reading. I keep saying, “she’s only a kid once and she probably won’t tolerate me in her room for much longer…” I thought that by this age (9), she’d be ready to regularly fall asleep on her own, but there’s no sign of that coming. I don’t mind keeping her company—it’s a point of connection. I wonder if I’m stealing a sense of independence or pride by allowing this to go on for too long. As an aside, she’s fine at sleepovers because another kid is in the room. [/quote]
