When a Child Resists Going to Bed

Getting your youngster to go to sleep is the most stressful time of day for many parents. But it doesn't have to be.

The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests how to help tackle toddlers' sleep troubles:

  • Create a consistent, quiet and relaxing bedtime routine.
  • Let your child take a favorite stuffed animal or blanket to bed.
  • Offer your child a drink of water or a night light to make sure he or she is comfortable.
  • Don't allow your toddler to sleep in your bed.
  • Don't enter your child's room every time the child cries.
  • Be patient, and realize that good sleep habits can take time to develop.

I guess the most "unpopular" point is that concerning sleeping in the parents' bed))) IT'S UNFAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I remember my own disappointment and frustration when I wasn't allowed to remain with Mum for sleep. Oh, how various and long-lasting my pleas were!) And the truth is that I succeeded very often)

It seems that the author do not have children)). If you offer a child a drink before sleeping, he/she will get up after a while by physiological reasons. When your child is ill, you will allow him to sleep with you or at least in your room, if you are not a monster. But going to sleep in an appropriate time according to “sleeping schedule” is of vital importance, though difficult to keep to.

Haha, my first thought when I read the recomendations was just the same! Does the author really knows what it means when a childs does NOT sleep? My mum often recollects the time when I was small and she couldn't but get angry with me. Nothing could make me take some sleep if I didn't want to. I never slept in the afternoon. No toys or lullabies were able to produce a miracle. My mother was just hopeless. So there are children who are likely to violate all the laws of physiology. They are just hyperactive.
