When we are going to bed, we read lots of stories to our 3 year old, he procrastinates a lot and bed time has always been a bit of a struggle
He gets very worked up being put in bed alone
I usually stay, sooth him and lie next to him on the floor sometimes he wants to lie next to me holding my hand , if that happens I then transfer him. sometimes it takes a while but I really don’t mind and enjoy the cuddles.
My husband thinks it’s about time I stop and thinks it’s odd at his age and Keeps telling me to stop doing it ,

I agree with yourself, they won't need us forever. I stay with my lB till he is asleep

Have you tried keeping the landing/night light on and his door and your door open? That works sometimes for us to reduce the time we need to stay in there with them

My little one is 3 and we still co sleep and have done since day 1. You do what you feel is best for your little one. He won’t be little long and you’ll miss the cuddles x
