[quote=Anonymous]My same-aged daughter has always wanted a long-drawn-out bedtime, but it takes the form of wanting extra huge and kisses, and cuddles in bed, and one more cuddle, and no I didn't spend enough time in her room, and I forgot to kiss her plush panda, and I forgot to kiss her plush marmot... I usually go along with it, but last night I had enough and just walked out after a reasonable amount of hugs and kisses. She was NOT happy! Why don't you wake up your daughter earlier? Make her run around the block 10 times before breakfast (or whatever), and she may not fight you so much at bedtime. Or if she doesn't want to go to bed on time, say: "Sure, you can stay up if you do these math problems and read this text with the reading comprehension questions." Would she go to bed then? :-) [/quote]
