sometimes little ones....as they grow.....need little security reassurances.... he is probably waking to find that you're not lying next to him...and he cries so that you can come and reassure him that you'll be there when he needs you.... separation anxiety is a life's lesson at a year and 1/2 but no matter how sleepy ..... get up and hold our baby..cuz u know what mannnn... that time passes so swiftly and each one of those moments are gifts. Also, there may come a time ...when your not so little boy comes and sits on your knee (barely fitting) and says.... Dad ...thanks for always being there for me... I remember you coming and comforting me when i would awake during the night and no matter the hour nor the circumstance.... you were there.... it was then that I learned I can count on you no matter what and c.....THAT RIGHT THERE.... is priceless my whew, i think that's what we're going through right now... very helpful, this org. | |

Listen careful to what he says CC and don't let him think that you don't believe him...children are a lot more sensitive for certain 'things', more pure (sorry if i can't exaclty explain what i mean ) all I'm saying is: take his words serious Yeah, sorry 2 spook you out, but I agree with AndGodCreatedMe!! Do not underestimate anything a kid sayz..everz. I remember being late 2 an 3 yearz of age...lookin back, I have reason to believe dat kidz are ultra sensitive to certain thingz...and they're not as unknowing as one may think!! No hablo espanol,no!
Pero hablo ingles..ssii muy muy bien... "Come into my world..." Missy Quote of da Month: "yeah, sure, that's cool...wait WHAT?! " | |

katt said: My husband used to tell stories about the bath monster that would drink all the water that went down the plug hole. My little one has an active imagination and used to scream his head off when we attempted to get him to use the toilet, the poor wee thing was so frightened the bath monster had moved to the toilet and was watching him do the toilet and just waiting to jump up and drink the water.
We had to go to the toilet with him every time, check the bowl and say the bath monster wasn’t there, wait until he did his business. It took many months to perused him not to be afraid. (my silly husband and his daft stories ) Try purchasing a night light that you keep on all night for him. and maybe you going into the room and laying down beside your little one until they fall asleep might help. Good luck i hope you get some sleep soon LMAO!!! That is sooo cute... however I have 2 kids 7 and 9 so I'm still somewhat stuck with the bed time dilemma's/ghosts...but I'm getting a grip lol.... I read them the stories of how some things "protect" U such as dream catchers - yup, I baught them, crystals (rose quartz ) under the pillow along with other lil things and I must say it is really starting to work, well so far so good...a few glitches but it's much much better! | |

I feel for ya...sounds like you have a young one...
I think the dog idea is a great one, I have two kids and a pet chihuahua, they take turns sleeping with her. My kids were always perfectly fine sleeping in the dark. I have a 9 and 6 yr old. It wasn't until their cousins (about the same age) started wanting to spend the night with them that we started having problems. One cousin, the girl who would spend the night with my daughter, would constantly try to frighten my daughter by saying "did you see that door move?" "That doll wasn't there a minute ago when we left"...She is from a disfunctional home, we tried to reason with her, but she is no longer allowed to stay with us. I can't have my daughter afraid to sleep in her own room...she would try to complain to us about those sorts of things were happening the night after her cousin left. The other cousin, the boy who slept with my son, wanted the TV on ALL NIGHT LONG..he said that's how he fell asleep at his house, plus a nightlight. Well, of course, my son tried to complain about being afraid of the dark when his cousin left. I agree, you have to listen to your kids...I know why mine started acting like that...but kids are very tuned into the supernatural. Personally, I believe in that stuff, so don't be so quick to dismiss their feelings...you do have to go with your gut instinct. But, if you feel nothing is wrong, you must be firm with your stance... or else you'll have to take extreme measures for them their whole childhood. Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

AndGodCreatedMe said: CCII said: What's strange is that Ihave the night lights. Last night when I went back into his room, he grabbed me and pointed to an empty corner. Now, I'm not a person that will pretend to have seen something that wasn't there. But I did see something that I couldn't explain late one night. I saw this bitch ass "whatever" twice. I'm wondering if he sees it,because he picks up on a lot of shit that I'm like wondering how he's able to do it. I hope this made sense. I'm multi-tasking over here. Outside of my son, keeping things interesting, Prince.org has come alive. CC again listen to your kid and your own intuition I've been thinking about this most of the day. I know it's hard for some people to believe in this sort of shit but I do. It's funny to joke about it when friends come over but their asses won't spend the night. I'm still thinking about this. | |

My boys are 4 and 2, I've just recently had to separate them due to them playing instead of sleeping and now there is no problem. But I remember when the eldest (and more sensitive of the 2) was just learning to talk he'd often drag me into his bedroom and tell me to look at the "sick girl in the corner". It freaked me out, but I didn't let it show, instead we regularly talked about her and I would ask him if she was feeling better, gradually he stopped talking about her and now sleeps in a different room. I believe he did see someone, given his sensitivity, it doesn't surprise me in the least. | |
