Well her way of thinking is that if he isn't taking naps then it means he doesn't have his own private space so I should move out of the room. I'd like for him to have his own room in the future of course but right now I personally don't see much of a problem with it. In their house, the other child and my son have to share a room because there's literally only the essential rooms left (living room, kitchen, bathroom). She does have three children so I'm guessing this is based on her experiences and such. I just don't like the way she says it, like it's absolutely necessary and overrides my way of thinking. Also I get nervous about standing up for my thoughts because the father has more rights than I do to our son.
Thank you both for writing in, it's a lot more reassuring to see your advice. I'll do my best to be firm my beliefs while at the same time not be aggressive and avoid possible fighting.
