[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 513868, member: 1233"] It sounds like a combination of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and sensory to me. OF course my kids did not want me around them int he mornings and they sure tried to not wake me up unless they were sick or hurting because I am not real pleasant when I wake up. That is due to my own sensory and other issues. I woudl far rather tuck my kid in at 15 than to get up and do mornings with them, but I seem to have the biological clock of a vampire. Is having him fall asleep in your room a problem for you? What would happen if you locked your bedroom door int he evenings and he couldn't get in and you didn't give the second tuck in that he wanted/needed? I am asking because his reaction might help you figure out the root of the problem. Esp if you looked not at just what he said but at physical signs of fear, etc.... FWIW, I know of a couple of families where the parents still tuck in teenage pcs. Not sure why, but I know it happens. In one family I think it is the mom's inability/unwillingness to let them grow up, but that is my take based on what I know of her problems. regardless, I hope this is not a big thorn n your paw, and that someday he doesn't need that or he finds a very tolerant significant other.
