How do you get 10 year old to sleep by herself?

Answer 1

If a girl around ten is having a problem sleeping, give her some warm milk of sing her a song. If this doent work, ask her if there is anything wrong. If so talk to her about it and this might clam her down. If not ask a doctor if your daughter is having her period.

Ummmm.........Some kids are just afraid of the dark, and so are some adults. In fact, most people just do not like sleeping all alone. Humans have natural instincts that make us afraid of the dark. It is not a mental problem or a freaking period issue (how stupid of someone to say that), but an instinctual reaction. People used to all sleep together up until the past 100 years.

Now that being said, I gave my daughter a TV, leave her door open, and we start bedtime extra early so she gets enough time to relax and fall asleep. I also let her sleep with me anytime she is scared. She is almost 10, and super smart and sweet. She is independent in all other areas, and it is not really an issue because we do not make it out to be one.
