[quote=Anonymous]My kids were 7pm sleepers as toddlers. I stuck to it and was disciplined even though my parents think that starting dinner prep for a 2 yr old at 8pm is normal and that I had a control issue. They eventually got over it. I am now reaping the benefits of a disciplined bedtime. My oldest is now 8. She is allowed to stay up until 8 and then can lay in bed and read until 8:30. Lights out at 8:30. Her friends parents are amazed that she goes to bed like this every night. They want to know how to get their child to sleep before 11. In the morning, my child showers before school, gets herself breakfast and than watches tv until it's time to leave. I can't tell you how many mornings her friends have arrived late to school because Larla couldn't get up. Of course she couldnt, she was up until 11! OP-- you are doing the right thing. You are setting your kids up for a successful day and a sucessful future routine. Hold your ground.[/quote]
