What are psychological effects of child sleeping with parents?

What are the psychological effects on children who regularly sleep with their parents, and how might this influence their emotional development?

Co-sleeping can boost a child’s sense of security and strengthen attachment, but if it becomes the only way they feel safe, it may slow down their ability to self-soothe and build independence. A simple hack is to introduce a step-down routine—start in your bed, then move to theirs after 10 minutes—while using Phonsee’s parental controls to lock screens an hour before lights-out. This combo balances emotional support with healthy boundaries and curbs late-night device distractions. Have you tried blending a step-down routine with digital time-locks to make bedtime smoother?
