[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the stepdaughters mom okay with her kid sleeping in your bed? [/quote] +1. I would be extremely upset if I heard that my daughter was sleeping in the same bed as her dad and stepmom. That is creepy and opens every one up to liability about sexual abuse, which could result in lost custody. I would seek to make the bioMom an ally in this. Stop criticizing her for letting the kid sleep in bed with bioMom. Instead say how you understand that it feels like the right thing to do, but you don't think it's appropriate at your house and that DD needs to have some age-appropriate (in a positive not punitive way) self-soothing strategies other than sleeping with a parent. It's better for all 3 parents to get the kid a neutral therapist who can work on anxiety issues and create guidelines for all 3 parents to stick to to get the kid transitioned back to her own bedroom as an issue of age-appropriate self-soothing and independence.
