[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3 kids not only come in our room, they sleep in and out of our bed.

I had a friend who would lock her bedroom door at night. She would tell me how her kids would cry and fall asleep by her bedroom door. I thought that was pretty cruel. She also works long hours.[/quote]

Omg! This brought back memories. I would go in my parents bed if I was scared or had a nightmare. Then I guess they decided to train me out of that so they locked the door. And I would cry and bang on door and eventually fall asleep next to the door. Now I have a 4 year old and I would never, ever leave him to cry like that outside my door.

My parents were weird in other ways, but I was generally allowed in their room, but definitely knew better than to mess it up -- like my 4yo would think he could take my pillows/blankets elsewhere but I would never have done.

My kid has all access to our bedroom, and I have to make some boundaries, such as can't bring in food, can't go in drawers, erc[/quote]

I attempted to do this with my son, because he would always end up in my room during the night. He was 5 years old and learned how to jimmy open the lock with a screwdriver!! I figured if he wanted in that bad, I would just let him.[/quote]
