How can I get my 2 year old to sleep in his own bed?

love.heidi asked:


My 2 year old usd to sleep fine in his own bed and room alone until he was 18 months old. In fact he wouldnt fall asleep anywhere else. One night he woke up crying and refused to sleep in his room and never did after that. I think it may have been emotional stress because his father and I had been going through a hard time and his father was no longer living with us. He will be 3 in January and he still has to sleep with me. I dont mind him sleeping in my bed, but I know if I dont get him to sleep in his own bed, it will trun out that he’ll want to sleep with me till he is 9 or something ridiculous. Is it healthy for a child to sleep with their parents? Over all how can I get him to sleep in his own room?
