How do I get my 10 year old OUT OF OUR BED!!!!

I never thought I would have a child in my bed at 10 y/o-really at any age. My son slept in his crib and then toddler bed without any problems. However through a series of events-he moved to my bed and has NEVER left!! We moved back to New Orleans area in July of 2005, in August 2005 my son had a tonsillectomy and tubes inserted-so we let him sleep with us for a few days while he recuperated. Katrina hit a week later and we spent the next 4 months on the road and of course in the same bed!! He has never left. When he has friends over he sleeps in his room, and he sleeps at other peoples houses without problems. Any advice would help. And let me say that is has put a strain on my marriage!!

I know how you feel, my youngest son is 9 and use to share a room with his brother. After I moved him in his own room, he started wanting to sleep in my room more and more. At first I thought he just needed to get use to the change but, it was every night. I got him to start sleeping in his room little by little. First we (Him and I) rearranged his room to the way he wanted it. Then I got him a color changing night light (He loved it), also I got him a little alarm clock radio. He felt like a big boy being able to set his alarm clock and listen to his radio before bed. Good luck!
