Answers:    You want to lie beside him while he goes to sleep; going away would grain to him like departure him in peril.

You can try to replace the bad pictures contained by his head next to pleasant pictures. If he is able to make clear to you about the pictures he see, you can give him suitable planning for substitutes.

If he can't tell you, next you can 'implant' images by conversation to him about pleasant subjects. Use silence, comforting ideas, near sunlight and trees if he likes the outdoors (some children can get the impression 'endangered' by the outside world), or indoor ideas in the region of birthday parties he have enjoyed or endeavours you've done together.

Talk about these descriptions in a low, soothing voice while he is falling asleep. Try to build the image funny, so that he is distracted from his fears in the order of falling asleep.

Don't expect the technique to work straight away. If you keep doing it, he will seize used to falling asleep in a supportive and amusing way, and will start to level-headed down beforehand when he's looking forward to the bedtime routine.

He might feel 'too old' for soft toys, but if you can gain him used to having one handy while you get him to sleep (perhaps a individuality hot-water bottle cover, or a glove-puppet), and (very important) you take it out of the room when you move, he will start to associate the routine with individual near the toy. Gradually start to distribute him to bed with the toy, and come surrounded by a little following to do the soothing routine.

As he gets more comfortable near the routine, he is more likely to spatter asleep before you come surrounded by, but you should still remove the toy and (if this wakes him) act the routine.

When you have done this a few times, you can make tracks the toy with him. In the morning, he will know that you enjoy not done the routine. This might upset him at first, but if you reassure him that he slept all right minus it, you can start to miss it out more often (but still gradually).

conceivably you can get him to draw the pictures he have in his herald and then burn them or something .Or otherwise recount him to talk in the order of them so he can get rid of his fears
