I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone would sleep with their kids. I would not have slept with my parents when I was a tricycle motor. Dad snored(-:). I could sometimes hear him from my room. I don't think its a very wise idea for adults to have young-uns in the snore shelf with them for a couple of reasons. 1) I can't think of any way it could improve the parent's sex life. 2) I'd be afraid of rolling over on a very small arm or leg or entire little body and making a small grease spot out of a former offspring. The one plus that I can find is that, if there was ever a fire, you'd only have to evacuate one room--- Just hope it isn't your bedroom that catches fire. Anyone know what impact (if any) sleeping with the parents would have on kids? Note: I am assuming that the parents are normal (brain healthy) loving people. But, I seem to recall reading somewhere that there are psychological ramafications involved here. I think Dr. Spock is a little over dramatic maybe so, I hesitate to take his as the final words on the subject. The shrink said the only way to keep Johnny off the curtains was lube 'em with axle grease dear. -tom frye-
