Parenting Methods

» shalymar94 - where should he be sleeping

I was in a very similar situation to yours three years ago, only i did not have any children of my own at the time and my stepson had just turned six. It can be so difficult when all you want is to be alone with your sweetie, and you don't feel like you have the ability to do that. Try to be aware that your soon to be DH probably enjoys having his son in the room with him as much as his son enjoys being in there, even though he may try and tell you it's just because the boy is scared or because of the recent changes or whatever. It's way more common than you may think. Also, how old is your son? Are the boys going to be sharing a room? When is the big day? Speaking from experience, you should both make an effort to come to terms with the others parenting style and agree as much as possible. It can be so trying when you have all of the newlywed relationship things to work out, and ALSO you are trying to come to grips with the other's views on parenting. AFA your original question goes, he should be sleeping where ever makes it possible for everyone in the family to sleep the best.
