I had the same situation with my daughter. She did not want to sleep in her own room but I told her it was time for her to be a big girl and besides, all her stuff was in her room. Helping her decorate and personalize helped a lot along with a soft night light.

Maybe you could try explaining to him that he is a big boy now and this is why he has his own big boy bed , encourage him about sleeping in the bed on his own . You could make a big deal about his bed by taking pictures while you are putting it together and let him help in the process ( this is what we did with one of our children when we moved her to her bed ) , she was so excited by the time night came to sleep in her big girl bed with all her new blankets , because we had went out and bought her some new stuff that we knew she would like on her bed also .
Hope this helps and best of luck !!

I sypathize with you on this issue i had my little boy in my bed until he was over 2, i bought him some really nice jazzy bed covers and explained that he was a little big person now and he's got his very own bed, it took me well over 2 weeks to get him into his own bed but i would leave a night light on and the door open, good luck you'll need it, but you never know once he gets into the new routine you might even get a good nights sleep..lol

I moved my sons into the same room together after my wife left so that the older brother could help out the yonger and make him feel more comfrotable being in his own bed and once he got older I moved him to his own room.
