Never. Sleeping with kids can not ruin the marital bond. The kids too need love and care from the parents. So the parents need to adjust time accordingly. 93 percent kids Indian kids sleep with parents, and divorce cases are less in India. Are the western marriages more durable just because the kids learn to sleep alone early? No.

@Sasmita agree with you, that children need emotional stability and when the time is right they will move out of their parents rooms. Though, regarding the divorce rate, unfortunately now even in India it is climbing

Hmmmm.....point to ponder Nishi...nice post! And agree with u that divorce rates in India has nothing to do with kids developing a mental bond when they sleep with their parents.

Children are a product of the marriage. Children are the bond between the parents. Many marriages which could be on rocks survive just because of the children. Sharing the bed with children should not and will not work against the matrimonial alliance.

Sleeping with the kids will not ruin the marriage, but instead make it stronger. The children are the fruits of the couple’s love. Romance between partners can still be done when children are not around or perhaps love-making can be planned and kids have to sleep somewhere else when this happens. It’s all a matter of proper planning and time management.

Hello,

How many of you actually have slept with their kids in the room?

If it for a night or two, then its ok.

but for prolonged periods it can cause some inconvenience to the relationship between the partners.

The factor is not sleeping with children per se, but lack of space and hinderence in comfort zone, that parents require to maintain.
