My DS 3.2 has started waking everynight and coming into our bed. He says he is having a bad dream and is scared to sleep in his own room.
He does seem genuienly scared of something but I think he might be making the dream bit up, everynight it is the same dream he says'man chase me away' after a couple of weeks of this I suggested that maybe he might have a nice dream, he could dream about balloons or going to the park etc. The next day he said 'I had a bad dream, balloons pop me away' .
I dont want to send to his room if he really is scared and upset , but I dont want this to turn into a really bad habit. Do you think this is just a stage and he will grow out of it?
