I have gotten into the baaaaaddddd routine of lying down with my five year old so that she can fall asleep. It started about 6 months ago, and now my two year old also wants me to stay with her while she goes to sleep. Sometimes it’s 10 minutes and other nights it’s 45. Does anyone have suggestions for breaking this cycle?

Warm her ahead of time and talk about how you can’t do it anymore and then stop. No matter what, it’s over.
A 5 yr old is way old enough to understand. |

| Go full on Super Nanny. Sit on the floor moving gradually toward the door. Head down, do not engage and no talking. She must stay in bed. |
