May I suggest getting a duplicate of this toy if possible?
I considered that, but I have refrained from buying either child these bedtime toys for the express purpose that they become a crutch to their peace of mind and ability to sleep at night. The last such toy I bought was two Christmas's ago was for S4 who had just turned 3. I don't get why xW continues to buy the both of them these toys that become so "indispensable" -- even for S8. He's eight years old now, in the third grade and a bear cub scout -- and yet his mother keeps encouraging his insecurities!
And now she's doing this with our soon-to-be five year old.
I guess I'm going to have to address this with the parenting coordinator the next time we meet -- in fact, I'm going to have a pretty large laundry list with me whenever that happens.
