Reassuring the child that he is safe and not alone can help ease his fears and anxiety. It is important for the parents to provide comfort and support to the child during these episodes. Offering warm milk or reading another bedtime story may not address the underlying issue causing the nightmares. Bringing the child to the parents' bed may provide temporary relief, but it is not a long-term solution and may disrupt everyone's sleep.
