'I can understand why people say it's weird' mum who shares bed with her children

A mum who still shares a bed with her two children said people call her "weird".

Bernie Watkins has co-slept with her children since they were born. Despite Frankie, 10, and Caden, 12, both having their own rooms, they still choose to sleep with their mum.

The 49-year-old said she "understands" why people say it's "weird" but the reason is because they share such a close bond. Bernie, originally from Childwall, said bedtime is the best part of their days because they can all snuggle up and have chat before falling asleep side by side.
