Is it normal for a 11 (almost 12) year old and his mom to sleep together?

It could get to be a big deal when he gets older...

It's a bit old. I would be more concerned if he still did it after puberty.

That's sounds very odd. Based on what some of the users said, I think you should monitor the situation. Look out for warning suns and what not. Be careful if you ask questions, they could get very defensive and things could possibly get worse....

What does the other brother think about all of this? Does he share the same concern as you? There's the possibility that nothing is going on, but there's something too strange about this.... What does he do if his friends come over? Does he treat his room as his room and make them think that he has normal sleeping habits in it? The brother sleeping with her until he was 7 is a bit odd too.

My brother slept in mum's bed til highschool. My aunt told me last year that apparently mum would bring him into her bed if he went to sleep in his. I didn't know that til then, and it certainly ramped up the disturbed factor. It wasn't sexual but I still think it was fucked up.

I would monitor the situation. On the information you've posted alone, it is impossible to say if it is dodgy or not. Look out for signs of abuse and remember not to ask leading questions as that can fucj up legal procedongs if it does come to that.

Normal

Maybe he is just clingy to the mom. If he is clingy to the mom it does not mean he is going to cling to you when he was gone. Some kids get clingy to their parents. Its not always healthy but it does happen. Sometimes the parent/parents will encourage this clingy behavior to help their own insecurity. Also maybe he just misses his mother if you say shes never ever home. Being gone for 10 days and leaving a 12 year old is probably going to make them very sad.

well glad its not my problem to deal with
shes probably messing with her son if this is
not a "fake story".

the mum goes away for up to 10 days in a row with work? i'm guessing she's a single mum, as she needs a nanny. i would say, traditionally, no, it's not normal. but look at the situation in perspective; this is a kid who's parents are either divorced or the dad's dead or in some way out of the picture, he doesn't get to see his mum for long periods of time, and he's a sibling, which must make getting time alone with his mum (something every kid needs) difficult. Maybe this is the only real chance he gets to be with his mum. I don't think there's any reason to be getting worried about incest just yet.

i dont think its any of your busines ls really..

Well let's keep in mind that while it may not mean sex, that is not the only issue that could come out of this, ie- dependency issues, commitment issues later in life, etc.

My cousin is extremely interdedependant on his Mom and has slept with her on the couch for 14 years (he will be 15 in October). I'd watch that shit if I were you.

My younger brother who is 14, still sleeps with my mum and he is still scared of the dark, lol.

This is something I will never understand. Exactly what day should a child stop keeping in the same bed as their parents? At 4 how about 4 years one day, 4 years 2 days? This is just a guess but I'm assuming dad left early on in his life and so he sought his mom for security, now it is simply comfortable to sleep in a bed with someone else. He doesn't sleep in his older brothers bed (I'm guessing) because the older brother sees it as an imposition. Nudity does not = sex and sleeping in the same bed does not mean anything "in appropriate, sometimes a cuddle is just a cuddle.

Until you hear fap fap fap, youre good...

GIVE HIM A BED...

Its somewhat normal. I used to when I was younger my mom would stay in my bed with me till I fell asleep then leave. I used a pillow beside me to feel like she was there. Then about age 7 or 8 I realized there was nothing scary out there to get me.

well it not that bad, have you talked to that "milkymum" chick, now she has some fucked up shit going on. i swear she must be a troll. cause if not, those kids are ruined for life.
