I thought you all might enjoy this...there is a bm out there somewhere irritated because her kids have trouble sleeping on their own with her. Oh how I can relate.

Yep - the house I grew up in didn't have air conditioning. We had two window units in the house - one in the kitchen and one in my parents' bedroom. 4 kids split between two bedrooms, no air conditioning - how on EARTH did we survive into adulthood?

Oh, I know how. We just did it.

Co-sleeping with a one year old is very different than a 5 and 3 year old. I had to sleep train twice with my BD and the second time was much smoother than the first. Good luck, stay strong and know it's the right thing to do for your child. Good healthy sleep is so important.

And you also know that there are whole slew of single women who crossed that man's path, saw the situation for what it was (Disney Dad enabling much??) and ran for the hills.
