A member asked:

My 2.5 year old girl wakes up in the middle of the night playing, or crying to be picked up? why

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Same as last answer: If you reward a behavior you will see more of it. If the kid is getting private time in the middle of the night, why not. If not sick , time to make brief observation & then leave, closing the door behind you. House rule should be they stay in their room until dawn unless there is a problem.
