The Hadith states we should seperate them at the age of 10.
I can find no hadith that states they may not be seperated earlier. But, based on that hadith, it seems like it would be advisable to let the child sleep with the parents any time they desire as long as they are under the age of 10. However, it is always best to get advice from an authenticate scholar and not rely fully on web sites.
Dawud :: Book 2 : Hadith 495
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As:
The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: Command your children to pray when they become seven years old, and beat them for it (prayer) when they become ten years old; and arrange their beds (to sleep) separately.
The question has been answered, to avoid any possible argument I am locking the thread to further replies.
