[quote=Anonymous]Our rule is the phone is on the kitchen counter by 7:30pm. TV and laptop are off by 8:30/9. Bedtime 9:30. If she is having trouble falling asleep, she is allowed to put on a DVD of one particular calming movie. If she fought me on bedtime, it would be an indication that something is wrong. I would ask more questions and if nothing was truly amiss, he would start losing privileges quickly. You can't make him go to sleep, but you can make life very boring. I would also look at diet and exercise. Mine gets no caffeine and gets an hour or two of exercise daily. When the weather finally gets nicer and the pool is open, I often take her to the pool in the evening for some swimming and diving. Pool time is like sleeping pills for kids. [/quote]
