[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Part of the issue is that he is starting to age out of naps. I have been telling her that, but she refuses to believe me. Instead, she insists that he still needs a nap, and then lays in bed with him for long periods of time trying to get him to sleep (often unsuccessfully). [/quote] Ah, she needs to move to “quiet time” instead of nap time. Have him sit in his room and read or play quietly for an hour after lunch. Most kids drop the nap around 4. My ds dropped at 3 and my dh did not believe me. So one Saturday afternoon he put him in the car and took a long drive, which normally would conk him right out. The drive the entire length of the beltway, with ds looking out the window the whole time! Dh finally had to admit I was right, ds was done with naps. [/quote]
