How many of you have heard this story? How does it end?
I have tried countless tactics to fend off the nighttime meltdown and I'm not entirely sure I've found the right one. We've currently been promising an early morning snack in Daughters room, to be waiting for her when she wakes up, on the condition that she goes to bed without a fight. This has been working, but we're only on day 10. As with all tactics, she seems to time them out after about 2 weeks.
I've tried keeping her up later. Super backfire. I've tried new pillow cases, a poster on the ceiling, activity incentives for the following morning, good manner charts and taking toys away. These things all fell by the wayside and I have nothing left in my bag. What is the answer? What are you doing for a child who constantly complains about not wanting to sleep?
