Is it inappropriate for a dad to sleep in the same bed as his daughter?

Same could be said about the mom. I’m sorry but this works both ways .

If he has a known history of child physical/sexual abuse then sure it’s wrong on every level. But if he’s been nothing but a decent dad and has given you no reason to think this way then your just being a petty biatch. Let him snuggle and love his daughter, if you’s are moving so far away from one another both him and his daughter will want to cherish whatever time they can get together, assuming you’ll have majority custody.

Yes it is. You need to get full custody because. If he keeps this up what’s next. Touching? It happened to my nieces.

So because you guys are splitting up hes suddenly a chomo?

Dads love their children just as much as Moms…there is no harm with dads and daughters laying in the same bed together…you lay with her? Would you question your motives for doing so? If you had a son would you avoid snuggle time with him? Your daughter will probably need more connection time with BOTH of you if your separating…

Nothing wrong with it in my opinion. Mum of 3 girls. My youngest sleeps with me and my partner every single night. My other two were in their own beds from babies. But my youngest ( she is 5) is our baby and she loves to snuggle with both of us.

I don’t think it’s wrong at all. When you were together were you worries about him being Predatorial? I don’t know you but I’m going to say no.

So if you weren’t then why are you now?

He probably just wants to spend as much time with her before and build a bond before you are living under separately.

Just remember you love this man once, Just because you don’t any more doesn’t mean you should jump to any suspicions.

The bond between a father and a daughter is a beautiful thing don’t come between that because you’re salty.

If you think he’s a predator - make him move out.
If you don’t think he’s a predator - what’s your damn problem?! A father trying to bond with his child in the same was her mother does? Or are you doing something inappropriate with your daughter that you don’t want to share her?

Wtf is wrong with this world?! No wonder men feel like they can’t do half the stuff mother’s do… Do you also abuse men who try to change their babies in parents rooms?

I wanna know why you have concerns…for a mother to have these concerns over a childs father is a real issue…I’m not judging…I’m a mum and the only way I’d think this is because he has a previous of being a pedo

I mean, so what if they nap together? If there’s no other place for him sleep, then it is what it is. It’d be no different then you doing it.
Offer him your bed then, to nap in?
Do you have concerns of him doing something to her? If not, I think you’re blowing it out of proportion.

There is nothing wrong with that it’s her father! :woman_facepalming:t5:I was 15 sleeping with my daddy when I wanted to because we loved watching a show and I’d fall aslp in his bed. Absolutely nothing wrong with it u trippn

I think you are seriously over reacting. He is her parent just like you, and you are both adults so if its wrong for him then it’s wrong for you.

my opinion its wrong,could he not put matteress on floor

I don’t see anything wrong with it. She is only 5 and he is her dad. Would be different if she was 10+. Everyone loves cuddles with their parents :woman_shrugging::woman_shrugging:

You’re being ridiculous. Is it wrong if you sleep in the bed with her? No cause you’re her parent and so is he! If you had a son and dad flipped whenever you shared a bed with your son you would think he is being ridiculous. Unless you have a genuine concern for predatory behaviour than I don’t see your problem. And if there is cause of predatory behaviour why would you even allow her near him?

My husband still co sleep with our daughters and why do you think in that way ? The only issues I’ve faced in this situation is my husband will allow our kids sleep late just that but they have bonding as father and daughters as well. Because when the mother pass away the kids will only have only their father to lean on. In my opinion though

So really that’s the question you should be asking … why do I feel this way ?

So you can sleep with her in the same bed but her dad cant?? If its ok for mum then its ok for her dad. Nothing inappropriate at all and if you think it is then maybe you should seek help.

My hubby sleeps in bed with my daughter when he’s turfed out of ours by our baby!
She too is 5 and I’d question yourself as to why you find this inappropriate…

No different to her sitting on his lap and they both fall asleep. Let him enjoy the cuddles as you do. Xx

He’s being a parent. If you would not view it as inappropriate if it was you and a son then why view father and daughter as inappropriate? If you have no reason to believe he is harming your daughter then why do you feel this is inappropriate?

I’m tired of the stigmas and double standards against dads and daughters vs mothers and sons.

I loved taking naps with my dad at that age lol his snores were always comforting for me even as a baby, it let me know that someone was there with me.

Its her dad. What’s the problem? Is it acceptable for her to sleep with you?

Unless you get weird vibes like he is in appropriate with her in some sort of sexual way, I don’t see what the issue is. It’s not like he’s sleeping naked or anything. My advice is if you have concerns or have issues with this then speak your peace now or of course it will continue in your absence. I pray it isn’t what I was speculating too by the way!!!

My five year old gets in between me and my partner every night elbows me as she cuddles up and whispers ‘my daddy’ every bloody night, nowt wrong with it at all :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Even though I didn’t do this with my daughter you sound like my ex, sounds like your reaching for something to hold over him. Chill lady

I don’t see anything wrong with it sleep is sleep it’s not like you’re they’re both naked in the bed

I have vivid memories of sleeping in the same bed as my dad who had custody of me when I was around that age anytime I didn’t feel good.
If the child isn’t showing distress, then I’m not really seeing the issue.

She’s just looking for another excuse to add to the separation… be lucky she has a dad that cares.

I guess you are watching too much porn which has effected your mental health badly.

If you’re worried about your child sleeping in the same bed as her father then you should be worried about her ever being alone with him.

If you’re not then no it’s not a big deal. It’s her dad, of course she seeks comfort with a parent. Why is it okay for you to if it’s not okay for him?
If you have concerns that he’s a child predator then why is he in your home?

If she was 15 yeah there would be an issue, but at 5 it’s easier to wake up with them or hear and feel them get out of bed so they don’t get onto things they shouldn’t.

I dont see the issue. Its ok for you to bed share but not him :thinking: my daughter is 6 and sleeps in with her dad when she goes over there. My sister has two boys age 5 and 10 that choose to sleep in with her some nights i cant see the problem unless you think hes a danger around her but as he’s still living under your roof atm and you’ve stated she will be staying at his when he moves out i guess he isnt a danger so theres definitely no problem unless your daughter becomes uncomfortable with it.

My 5 year old son sleeps with me and my husband because he feels safe with us. He loves to snuggle. Be happy that he is involved and loves his daughter. You’re making it into a problem when it’s not. He is her father! Let him be a daddy.

Wtf you’re weird for this. If you can’t trust the father of your child to sleep with them, why were you banging them in the first place???

Lol my step-daughter is 4 and co-sleeps with us on our weekends. She wants to snuggle her daddy just like any other CHILD wants with their PARENT. Just because y’all are going through a divorce please don’t take this out on him. He deserves the snuggles just as much as you do.

Unless there are other things going on that are causing you to have other thoughts. Than she shouldn’t be with him at all.

My sons dad puts him back in his own bed and falls asleep with him, it’s a bad cycle to get into because he won’t sleep on his own now, and if I had a daughter I wouldn’t feel any different about him doing it, the only thing I see wrong about it is that he won’t sleep in his own bed on his own

Omg is this a for real question? That is her dad as long as he isn’t naked there isn’t anything wrong with this, he’ll my 4 year old daughter won’t go to bed some nights until her daddy is in bed with her there is nothing wrong with that at all. But if something doesn’t feel right with you trust your gut all though you are the mom and you know best

I slept with my parents now and then when I was younger, I often got scared of my own room. It isn’t that abnormal. You should be able to trust family - if you’re having doubts you can trust him then there’s deeper issue than this going on.

Hell no. He is her dad.

Would this be a problem if you werent separating?

Well in my view nothing wrong with that unless you know more than you are saying, if you do and anything sinister is happening then you have a moral obligation to your childs welfare

If you’re concerned about him co-sleeping with his daughter, you’ve got bigger issues at hand.

The only way I can guarantee my 4 yr old daughter won’t start screaming in her sleep from night terrors is if she’s co-sleeping with dad. And yes that is what it is. CO-SLEEPING.

First question I have is have you seen something that concerns you?

If your having a go at him over this no wonder it causes an argument, to him that’s probably really hurtful . That’s his little girl no difference than a mum sleeping beside there child . He’s also moving out and away like you said . Don’t you think he’s trying to spend every hour he can because he knows this will be the last time he can in your family home .

I think you need to find out the legal side of things before asking facebook. The law may have a different view on things then what is on facebook. If you and the Dad are separating and still want to remain friendly you might like to point out the legal side of co sleeping with children of the opposite sex. If it’s illegal and he is reported to child safety he might blame you for it even if it wasn’t.

Stop putting this energy in your family. He’s her father and the family is in turmoil. Ì can imagine she needs comforting. Please leave them alone.
