Re: Parenting: Best practices and lesson learned.
All three of my kids were breastfed so all of them shared bed with me. Eldest kid wanted to have his own bed when he was 5, 2nd one moved to a separate bed at 4 and the youngest who’s now 4 is sometimes sleeping with us and sometimes in his own room. I never forced my kids to sleep separate but they are alhamdulilah very independent and love having their own separate place to sleep.
Oh and I make sure that they take their afternoon nap for an hour because they find afternoon naps very boring (they’re not allowed to come out of their beds even if they’re not planning on sleeping) and to kill that 1 hour they pick up their books and start reading.
