Over the past week or so my daughter (2.5) has been talking about a monster in our house. Last night it was really bad and she wouldn't go to the bathroom alone, kept hiding behind the couch and pointing down the hallway and wanting me to carry her everywhere.

I honestly have no idea where she got this from. My husband or I have never talked about "monsters" and the only thing she watches on TV is Paw Patrol. I've repeated to her that there are no monsters in the house, we've walked through all of the rooms together so she can see there's nothing there but it hasn't helped.

I laid in bed anxious about this for hours last night.. I don't know why it's worrying me so much, but it is!

Has anyone else gone through this? Any tips for helping her get over this?
