Children have nightmares for the same reasons adults do. There really is no way to stop it. Could maybe try to calm him down by asking him what was scary and explain to him that it wasnt real and nothing is going to harm him- if hes old enough. It does suck to see kids cry from nightmares and sometimes you cant do a thing about it other than comfort them. Just dont make it a thing where you or an adult holds him or stays by his side the whole time he's awake or you'll run into bigger problems- Good luck! |
