My 7 year old son won't go in his bedroom on his own, even though our living room is opposite and he can see us and vice versa. Any ideas on how to encourage him to go in his room would be appreciated. Thanks
Hi wish I can help you with ideas, I am also have the same trouble with my son is 12 years old and I still have to sleep in his room, for a long time he was sleeping at the end of our bed.
I feel for you, I have to sit with my son until he falls asleep, if he wakes he then sleeps in my room.
That sounds really good, I'll give it a try, thank you.
Hi. What about a pillow mist spray? I recommend the Bloom and Blossom ones from Boots, not too pricey. They feature 3 Roald Dahl characters and the Very Hungry Caterpillar on separate bottles. I have used the BFG ones for over 4 months and, each time I spray it on 1 of my pillows, it helps me to relax and sleep more easily.
We put glow lights in his room, fish tank and a projector light that Changes colours and play sounds hoping this would help, this still did not settle him.
it has been hard.
