I'm too tired to think of a title - help


So, it's almost 3 AM here and we've all been awake for 3 hours now. My son (edit: 3 year old) is freaking out about bugs in his bed (there are no bugs). Now he's lying on the office couch (pulled him out of his room so his sister can try to sleep) telling me he sees bugs climbing up the wall and out the hole (there is no hole). He has had night terrors before, but this is not a night terror. He's very awake at this point and calmly telling me about the bees and weevils.We've explained that there are no bugs inside. We've tried showing him there are no bugs. We've told him bugs are a good thing. Neither my husband or I are really bothered by bugs. My husband had a bee on his shirt today and calmly pulled his shirt away from his skin until the bee decided to leave. I tried giving him a toy to use as a fly swatter, but he went wild with it and freaked out again after 2 minutes.Now he's telling me it's raining outside (it's not...). via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2yh1YWj
