We would never ask this question about moms. Not all men are perverts.
Same age its inappropriate for her to share a bed with you, or your son to lay in bed with you.
Iām 35 and if my dad didnāt die 5 years ago Iād still be sleeping next to him every chance I got. When I was pregnant in 2010 I went to spend the night with my dad. By then he slept in his recliner every night. But he pulled the other recliner right up beside it for me
Thatās your baby why is it weird on any level?!
When I was 19/20 I spent a semester living at my auntās in a different city, my dad would travel there for business reasons. Heād sleep with me on the same bed. Zero issues with that, except he snores like a bear and I had to use ear plugs lol
The same time you decide itās inappropriate for her to share a bed with Mom as well.
Would you stop your son from sharing a bed with you? When the child decides to stop is when it stops, stop making it weird.
I have 4 daughters 9, 6, 5 and 3 years old and pretty much every night thereās a different daughter for some reason or another that comes and crawls in bed with us and snuggles right into my arms
Itās her flipping father for crying out loud why is it okay for a child to sleep with their mother but not their father people need to get their mind out of the gutter
Whenever she doesnāt want to anymore. If sheās still comfortable with it than you know she trusts her dad.
What I wouldnāt give to be able to sleep next to my dad my dad died unexpectedly when I was 16
At whatever age u feel itās inappropriate for her to sleep with you! Dadās are no different than momās!
If my daddy wasnāt always working and I lived closer you best believe Iād be crawling in his bed my birth giver made him lose from the time I was 6-18 when I turned 18 I did what I wanted there was š court hearing when I was 7 and I told the judge I wanted my daddy he overruled what I wanted and made me stay in š horrible place Iād do anything to get those years back with my daddy but now heās š papaw so I have to share and I wouldnāt change it but heās always working he hardly has any days off
As long as they are fully dressedā¦ as in PJs pants and shirt. There is nothing wrong with it at any point. And this goes for mothers and sons as well.
I think you should never even start her sleeping in your bed (unless a nightmare or storm) anyway. Put her in her own bed. Hard to break a bad habit.
I feel like these kinds of things are perfectly fine and normal , itās people with twisted minds who see it in a different kind of light . Thereās nothing wrong with that . Maybe if someone sleeps naked or something then Iād say itās a little strange . But itās a father and daughter ?
I never did until my dad died I was 22 and still curled up on the couch with him or snuggled watching Saturday morning cartoons and so did all my sisters
When you figure out what causes you to interpret that as sexual or in appropriate. Good lord. Donāt make it weird.
As long as they are both safe and comfortable, there is no āageā limitā¦. Iām 28 and when my dad is in state I go over there first thing in the morning and me AND my 2 year old daughter go snuggle with him I even still kiss my dad
I think its about personal reasons. My father sexually molested me when I was young and I hv 3 daughters, 2 youngest same dad and we are getting a divorce but anyway its been difficult bc of all the trauma I hv been through with my own father, ex boyfriends and my moms ex husbands. Sometimes I hv to stop projecting my personal issues onto him and my girls such as taking baths together, him going to the bathroom in front of them, getting dressed etc. I donāt think he would ever do anything bad to my girls but I canāt help to think he shouldnāt be doing those things but I know its mostly bc of what I hv been through. Though I am getting a divorce bc of his porn addiction, chronic and pathological lying, drinking problems, anger problems, I still am on reserve about those things with him. But just bc my dad did that to me and other men are like that doesnāt mean they are all like that. I just been talking to them about no one touches you in certain areas etc. But obviously its normal for kids to want to be next to their dad and sleep with him and their mom.
I donāt see an issue with it ever at any point? And why does it matter if itās a dad and daughter? Would you throw a fit if it was a mom and son? Father and son? Mom and daughter? Likely not. So get over it and leave them be. My kids will always be welcome to crawl into bed with me.
When is it inappropriate for her to stop sleeping with mom?
Or for a son to stop sleeping with mom?
He is a parent too. Shouldnāt be a different answer.
Me and my sister was in middle school and still slept with our Daddy. That man raised us and we was comfortable around him and knew nothing would happen. My 6 year old daughter has her own bed and she still comes and cuddles with her daddy sometimes. Today people just like to sexualize everything and make it weirdš¤Ø
Why make it weird???
I would really hope that you wouldnāt have to āworryā about whether or not its appropriate for a child to sleep next to their literal dad, otherwise you/they shouldnāt be with their dad. I donāt see why there needs to be an āage limitā on something like that. If youād be fine with your 10 yo sleeping in the bed with YOU, then it should also be fine for them to sleep in bed with their dad, because itās the same thing. As long as the kid wants to, then it doesnāt matter the age. Yikes.
Same answer for sleeping with mom. Theyāre both parents. You are sexualizing it.
Personally, I never allowed my kids to sleep with me for extended periods of time. Not because of anything to do with sex, but because I donāt want to share my bed, they need to sleep on their own, and when they are tinyā¦the risk of them suffocating.
The same age it becomes inappropriate for the mom to sleep with her son.
I guess the same time it would be inappropriate for a mom
I donāt see an age limit. My 10 year old son still sleeps in the bed with me sometimes. What is the issue?
Sounds like you are sexualizing something that isnāt sexual. If dad was like 60 and kid was like 40. Maybe thatās weird. But a dad and his little girl? Probably fine.
Whenever sheās not ok with it anymore
When sheās not okay with it anymore. Or him. Unless you feel something more is going on and if thatās the case you need to get off fb and talk to an officer.
I mean, unless you donāt trust your husband, I donāt understand what the issue is. Itās only weird and creepy if you make it weird and creepyš¬
I mean if a child is say 16 and staying in a parents bed all night every night to sleep, I would find that odd. Otherwise unless there is a reason to believe there is an inappropriate situation going on then kids like to sleep in parents beds. Mother or father, if a child is sleeping in bed with a parent and there are signs of something being inappropriate then it needs to be addressed. If not and the child isnāt forced to sleep in the same bed then I dont see the big deal.
Also to those getting upset, please remember you dont know if she has past traumas. My father is a pedophile and sleeping in his bed at night even though he had an office in the other room was ONE of the red flags. That doesnāt mean thatās all or even most fathers, and yes mothers can do it too as sad as that is. So nothing is probably going on here, but if she has past trauma this could trigger it. Trauma shapes us to see the unlikely, but possible, and attempt to avoid at all costs. Especially with our children.
Iāve always believed a child needs their own space. Whatās the point of them having a bed or a room if they donāt sleep in it.
As a victim of child sexual abuse/incest. You can never be too safe. I know Iāll get crap for saying that but itās true.
Why are all men/fatherās always perceived as Pedophiles. People have some sick minds these days
It doesnāt matter what other people think. As long as nothing weird is going on, she can sleep near her literal parent until whatever age she decides she doesnāt want to anymore.
I personally hate sharing a bed with children AT ALL, that doesnāt mean Iām going to impose that thought onto other people and say nobody should share a bed with their child. Itās a silly thing to ask other people when a child should stop doing something like this, because itās up to the child and the parent. Not strangers on the internet.
Depends on the situationā¦ Does the child have their own room and bed?
Just because a parent has an opposite genital from the child really ? Would you be asking this if it was a momā¦ Noā¦ A parent is a parent !
Is it every night or occasionally? And I maybe wouldnāt say inappropriate but strange/odd. The only time my son shares a bed with me is usually on vacation because we have to get a room with a chair or couch for my husband to sleep (since he can only sleep sitting up) and alot of times those rooms only have a king bed. Or at our Grandparents cabin he will share a bed with myself or did with my grandma because otherwise he would have to keep in the floor. So I find it more odd/strange Iād it was every night and they have the option of sleeping in their own beds probably around age 8.
Good job making this post a sexual thing. Just bc itās their dad doesnāt mean itās any different than a mom.
Never, thatās her father
Unless thereās a reason you think something would happen it shouldnāt matter how old the kid is.
If there isnāt. Then stop sexualizing your childās relationship with their father.
Would it be weird if she was sleeping next to you as her mother? If shes sleeping in yāalls bed every night maybe theres a different issue going on. Shit doesnāt have to be sexual just because its her dad. When i first started having symptoms for my
Mental illness I slept in my moms room a lot. It was way less scary that way for me and i always found comfort in my moms arms.
My dad got divorced from my stepmom when I was 15 and I slept with him until his new girlfriend moved in.
Never, if he aināt a creep.
My daughter is 17 & will still come get in the bed with me & her dadā¦& when I go out of town for work, sheāll still crawl in our bedā¦ itās only weird if youāre mind makes it weirdā¦ which says more about youā¦or says that you donāt trust the man you had a child withā¦I canāt understand why it would ever be a problem for my daughter to be around her fatherā¦
I may be unpopular with my comment but I feel like Iām realistic. I think when your child turns to be a teenager then it gets a little awkward. Like letās not forget that most men wake up with a stiffyā¦and it has nothing to do with whoās sleeping in his bed. And as a teenager his daughter probably now has boobs and is blossoming into a woman. Just not a good combination. A dad can show his love to his teenage daughter 1000 ways without sleeping in the same bed together. Also, I was a foster parent for years and saw so much sexual abuse that I couldnāt believe! Itās everywhere and making that cutoff would just ease my mind a little
Is the Mother in the same bed I pray
Why are you sexualizing a childās relationship with their father? If you trust their dad isnāt a creep, itāll never be an issue.
I have the same problem, and we got her a Minnie mouse bed, but still wants to sleep with her dad lol. #Ineedmyhusbandback
Why is she doing that anyways if sheās not a newborn?
Wellā¦ Iām 35 and still jump on daddios bed when I am havin a bad day. So maybe never
Um itās never āinappropriateā to sleep in the same bed as your parents. And if you think it is you or that parent shouldnāt be near the child.
Lol, if you feel as if it becomes inappropriate when your daughter climbs in bed with their dad, you need to question yourself.
I say never Iām almost 30, and I still get in my parentsā bed sometimes. When I was pregnant with my fourth child, I stayed with my parents while my husband was on the road. I was having severe emotional issues during my pregnancy, and I couldnāt stand to be alone. I slept with my parents I was married with four kids, and yet I crawled right up in the middle of my parents and slept almost every night for 6 months. Why are we making something out of nothing?
Some people have sick minds. Itās her dad wtf.
If you canāt trust her dad with her safety, I think you have bigger problems.
Umm adulthood? If my daughter wants to sleep with her dad, I let her. He doesnāt do anything inappropriate. This is weird.
My daughter just turned 8 and she will nap with her step dad. If heās sleeping thereās lots of times sheāll go cuddle and passes out
Itās only weird if you make it weird.
Where does this mindset come from?! I have PTSD from sexual trauma as a child and I donāt think this way.
man what the fuck is this question? my dad and I slept on the couch together until I was like 12, anyone who thinks this is weird should probably start asking themselves some questions
If itās okay forever to sleep with a mom then whatās the difference? If you feel itās inapprĆ²priate then rethink whos arĆ²und the kid period.
My 7 year old daughter crawled into my bed last night, I wrapped my arm around her and reminisced on when she was younger and would sleep in our bed.
You never know how many more moments we will have with our loved ones, especially children.
My girls sleep with their dad Iāve never felt an issue
at no time ,not a good idea .
Ive never thought about it cuz I trust my husband
Why would it be inappropriate? Thatās THEIR child. If you feel there is somthing else happening you donāt need to be on here you need to be talking to law enforcement. The Dad is just as much of a parent as a Mom. And my oldest is 6 and I still Lay in bed with him and will until HE kicks ME out ha.
Never too oldā¦ growing up me and my two sisters slept with our parentsā¦2 queen beds in the same roomā¦ ā¦ sometimes 2 with daddy 1 with mama or vice versaā¦I was 43 years old and my daddy was having health issues and when I spent the night with him I slept with himā¦ I see no problem
If you have to question that, you should probably actually be questioning who you have your child around!
Is it his biological child? I slept with my biological grandparents until I was 11? It was never ever wierd. Long as they arnt spooning while sheās at the age of growing into a woman I donāt see anything wrong with it.
This is stupid. If the daughter is comfortable still cuddling her dad, then it doesnāt matter. You wouldnāt think it was weird if it was her mom! I miss cuddling with my parents in there bed those are moments to be treasured. Donāt make it weird.
I slept in my dads bed until I was like 7 and then he booted me to my own bed haha , I kicked too much in my sleep
Whenever either of them feel uncomfortable about it. Itās never inappropriate unless you donāt trust him for whatever reasonā¦ and if you donāt you shouldnāt be with him anyway. Sleeping next to parents is biologically normal. Itās society that tries to make it weird for no good reason
My daughter is 7 and still sometimes sneaks into bed with her dad. Sheās a daddyās girl.
Is it weird for sons to sleep in bed with moms?
Why do dadās get such a bad stigma for being a good dad who shares a bed with his kid.
If there is no trust issues with Dad then she should be allowed to sleep with either parent as long as she feels comfortable doing so ā¦
My 11 year old still sleeps with us sometimes. If one of us is gone over night she will sleep with the other one
In many cultures the family bed is forever.
My daughter is 13 and still occasionally sleeps in the same bed as her dad. Thereās pillows between themā¦ and thatās her dad. I get anyone can be a weirdo, but if you donāt trust the dad with his own daughter than why is he even around.
My 6 almost 7 year old son will still sleep with me sometimes. Only weird of you make it that way.
When your daughter is no longer comfortable to do so thatās her Dad
Some people will always have issues. No need for back story. But I got guardianship of my grandson when he was 8yrs old. He had his own room but it was nearer the door than mine. After a relatively scary incident. I put in bed with me at night in a king size bed. But in the early years we would cuddle. Then he started holding my hand every night until he went to sleep at 10yrs old my dear friend questioned if I thought it was appropriate. I said yes maāam it is. And went on about my business and she hers. No hard feelings. (Thatās what mature conversation look like. ) when he was 11yrs he just naturally started going to his bed. It was about that time the threat of anything possibly happening was gone as well.
You really asking this question have a word with yourself and look closer to home specifically at YOU who are you bringing into the house thatās got you asking this question
35 years old and I sometimes take cat naps with my parents in their beds!
Never unless she was uncomfortable. People need to stop sexualizing normal father/child interactions.
There is no age limit. Itās whenever she wants her own space. What do you mean inappropriate. How is it inappropriate to sleep next to your parent?
Never? If itās ok for mom itās ok for dad. Stop making men caring for their kid sexual. Stop being gross.
Is there a legitimate cause for concern??? Because itās normal for children to sleep with or cuddle with their parents. Iām 23 and Iāll still sit in my momās lap or curl up with my grandma
When should a child not be in bed with their mother? Works both ways this question. If there is some cause for concern I hope youāre doing more than just stopping sharing a bed !
Stop sexualizing children.
I slept with my dad till middle school i think. My parents were divorced and I eventually out grown my toddler bed and just slept with my dad or on couch or heād sometimes sleep on couch cause he was up later than me watching TV. My mom always said it was wrong and disgusting. But my dad never ever ever sexualized anything. We didnāt cuddle or anything. Just shared a bed with my dad. I miss those days. My dad is my #1 person
Depends on the father. I shared a bed with mine in my 20s; we were driving back from out of town and had to stay the night in a 1-bed house. I felt safe the whole time, due to his character, not my age
Is he a weirdo or what? If there isnāt a problem why make one?
My 38 yo Special needs daughter still takes naps with her dad and I.
I was 21 when I stop sleeping on my dadās bed, until I got married.
I didnāt know that was a bad thing?
Is there a cause for concern ???
I m 34 and I have kids of my own and my 12 yr old curls up in bed with me or my parents bed there isnāt anything wrong with it at all unless u know something is going on or the adult is a bad person and has a history of doing something wrong in that case there is nothing wrong with a child finding the comfort they need at that moment when they get into their parents bed
Works both ways lady!
I love my dad and have always been cuddly with him but For serious reasons we never shared a bed, my parents donāt have a big bed and my dad sleeps naked and I thought it was nasty . I curl up to him on the couch a lot. I will never make it a problem. My future daughter is welcome to sleep with her dad if she wants and my son is welcome to sleep with me. Me and my fiancĆ© will never sexualize that. And it should never be sexualized. If your daughters dad is a predator, then yea I think itās wrong but if not I dont think itās wrong at all.
Well my 12 year old son still sleeps in bed with me at times. People need to stop making something out of nothing. If the kid is comfortable with it then whatās the issue.
