In regards to not letting the kids sleep in your bed, I choose to not do that with my kids.
I'm a father of two girls. My X is a NJ that I know will resort to false allegations of sexual abuse someday. My X also sleeps with the kids, even though they don't like it.
I'm not saying its wrong to sleep with your kids, and mine often wake me up by pouncing on me in bed in the morning and we hang out there and watch TV for a while sometimes.
However, I don't sleep with my kids because I want to promote independence and the NJ does it in a very co-dependent way where she 'needs' the kids to sleep with her. Also, when that accusation comes around some day, I can say that I don't ever sleep with my kids. It takes this out of the equation. Jerry Sandusky showered with underaged boys. Not saying its wrong, but it opens up the possibility of something happening.
You can't perform sexual abuse if you don't have the access. I know some people who volunteer with victims and the stories they have told me where the abusing parent sleeps with the child while the other parent sleeps somewhere else is sick. The professionals that investigate your case have seen the real thing and as for me, I want to eliminate any similarities between myself and abusers.
