Sleeping alone

2018-03-27 17:52:40
My 8 year old son is really scared of sleeping by himself. Someone has to sit with him until he falls asleep. Frequently, he would wake up at night and come to our room. When we ask him he would say that he saw someone staring at him or peeking at him from behind the door.
