[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure it's stress-related because of the pandemic, which is understandable. You're more stressed out, too, which probably makes it harder to handle her resistance. Give her a break. Be more loving and forgiving if you can be. Do the same for yourself. These are historic times.[/quote] OP here. I hear you. The problem is, DH and I *need* to go to bed at 10. Some of these battles last until 11 some days, and my DH (who has some OCD) simply can't handle it. And it's a battle because she will not leave our room. She'll jump on the bed to play. (which we have engaged in sometimes). Or sometimes it will be lying on our floor screaming "I'm not tired!!!" [/quote] OP again... I should add that I am physically exhausted at that point too. It's less for me about being in bed at 10 on the dot, and more about sheer exhaustion from the day.[/quote]
