Last night my son went up to my room and suddenly told me he's a little sick but i knew he was just acting up. He hopped into bed with me and my husband and pretended to close his eyes but kept on annoying his father who was playing on his phone. Then suddenly he transferred to my side and said, " i can't sleep if i'm not next to you." He was such in a dramatic mood ! The truth is i couldn't be next to him every weekdays because of my class which ends at 11pm and he could sleep alone then!
So today i feel like i wanna spend my whole day with him but he's still in school. So i will pick him up and buy his favorite food!

this is so sweet! what age is he though? my partners sister has fallen into a little trap with her son. shes a single parent and she often lets her 7 year old son sleep in bed with her, if shes lonley, or hes lonley, or its cold, or he isn't well, but now its got to the stage that almost every single night, the son gets up out of bed at 2am, and gets into bed beside her, and she'll wake up and he'll be there.. thats bad, because what happens when she meets someone? and maybe that man is staying over after awhile, and then her son gets up and goes into the room, and possibly feels pushed out by the new man? its being going on for almost 2 years now, so be careful it doesnt become a habit! :)

He's seven too and actually my mother-in-law told us that he needs to sleep in his own room but he refuses too. I know i have to train him not to sleep next to me but i really feel sorry whenever he would say he couldn't sleep if he's not next to me and i need him to sleep early because he has to wake up at 5:30 in the morning for school.

Doesn't work with my son! He's a super active kid and even in bed he still plays, wrestling with the pillows and all. He does get to sleep only when he's tired.

do what supernanny says! bedtime routine! warm milk, bed time story, jammies on early, and wind him down.. he'll be so relaxed he'll end up sleeping right through the night and won't even wake TO get into bed with you :)

Hi toni!
You see little ones (read kids) need attention and care of their parents. It is but natural for him to sleep with you as this makes him feel secure and safe. Sleeping alone for him could be uneasy for him. I do not know what are the circumstances which prevents him to sleep with you, however, you may try that you are around him most of the time, when he is at home.

My dear friend, i am trying my best as much as i can to be with him. I sleep next to him and when i have the opportunity i read books to him before he goes to sleep. I do kiss him good night and he does the same thing to me before he goes to school. I Love children and i want to have more if God would allow me too.

In this busy world It is good to be with children on Sundays. If possible play with them, it gives great recreation and relaxation.

That's what I call motherly love. I remember the times when my mom would sometimes get some of my favorite foods if she asked if there was something I would want from the store. :) Sometimes it would have to be on sale before she got it or it had to be low price. A lot of time that was the case. I really do miss my mom and hope she becomes sane again.

Hehehehe.. Perhaps your son is missing you. :) He wants to stay beside you. Wow.. I just admire you, being a mother. It must feel so good to have a son so sweet as your son. He must be raised well. I want to congratulate you for a job well done.
Continue to be a good mother to your son and I hope you'll be an inspiration to all mothers out there. Every mother must take good care of their children and raise them to be a loving and responsible citizen. :)

I am trying to be the best mother i could be. It's too early to tell right now if i'm successful at that or not. When he becomes an adult and become a responsible person, then i'm gonna brag about it.
I just feel so blessed to have him in my life.

it's really hard if you are not a full time mom, juggling your classes and your job as a mom is really hard, not only for you but on your son. If he is in his growing age, he really needs some guidance most of the time.
I hope you can get some more time for your son. :)
