I'm thinking the question is valid, the writer was only asking if you and your siblings were allowed to share the bed with your parents, from time to time.diana1960 said:
In my family, when we were young, Saturday mornings were "jump in bed with M&D time". We talked about our week, what our plans were for the day, and it was about the only time during the week that the four wee ones were quiet and listened to the others! lol
Children express themselves using words that have meaning for them. The word "scared" could mean many, many things ... concern for his Mom being alone, .... scared can show compassion.
You sound really upset and perhaps a little scared yourself about the choices your sister is making. Perhaps you would find it helpful to discuss your concerns with a professional, and maybe even a teacher of 10 year olds to learn what behaviours are considered normal for that age, and perhaps in a similar familial situation.
I'm glad that you turned to your KP friends, and there are many of us, with many perspectives and experiences, to bounce things off of. You know we 'have your back' and that you are part of a very large extended family.
