My son is 10-years-old and he is afraid of the dark! I get woken up every night if he wants to pee. And I can't ask him to get me something from his room after 7.p.m if the lights are off; This, even if the pathway leading to his room is brightly lit.I have a 3-year-old who obviously has her fears. I don't want her to grow up to be afraid of the dark. How do I help both my children?
