Parents, need advice.

First, I don't think your soon-to-be husband has any say in this. Step-parents really have to know that the parent is the one who doles out punishment and makes the final decisions for thier children. Step-parents are important and they are free to give their input to the parent but then they have to step back and let the parent decide the best course of action. He/She may not always agree with the parent, but they should support him or her.

I do think your child has an issue and probably needs to see a counselor. I know plenty of children who are afraid to sleep alone, but 11 is a little old for it. For his sake, I hope you can get to the bottom of his fears. I wish your husband were equally concerned about his emotional well-being as his odd behavior. He's a child... I doubt he'll sleep with his brother when he's 16. He may just be going through a difficult thing - or got really afraid of a horror movie. I couldn't sleep for days after I saw Freddy Kruger - I was 19 and if I could have slept with my mommy, I would have!

Best of luck to you and your family.
