Mine are teens too and yes I have to admit, I still do watch them sleep from time to time. My oldest will be graduating from high school at the end of the year, so I have to make the most of the time I have left with him living under my roof and that includes mom sneaking peaks of him sleeping so soundly.

yes I do also. My little girl is 4 1/2 years old and right now she doent have a bed time yet I usually let her fall asleep on her own. usually she watches PBS tv or Boomarang which is cartoons till she go's to sleep I do check on her frequently. she will also fall asleep at the foot of my recliner.

When they were babies, I would watch them sleep for a really long time. But I have seven children, so when they sleep...its kinda nice. ha ha
However, one of my children had sleep apnea until last year. I would watch him sleep just to be sure that he would breathe. It got very scarey!!!!

I don't hover over them and watch them sleep but I do check in on them
and every once in a while they will have such a lovely angelic content look that I do pause and give thanks that I have many blessings to be thankful for (they are all happy, healthy children 4, 7, 16 and 18)
