[quote=Anonymous]In our case, I (the mom) am the one who hates doing bedtime. DH has waaay more patience than me. I've found that moving bedtime up helps, and shortening the evening routine as needed so that it doesn't drag on for more than 30 minutes. Sometimes DH and I will split up bedtime so that I do the first part (reading stories) and he does the second part (toothbrushing/bathroom time). If we use a babysitter once or twice a week, we'll also try to work it out so that they're putting the kids to bed. Other thoughts: If he really hates bedtime, is there some other important task he can take over (cleaning up after dinner, folding the laundry, giving kids a bath) in lieu of bedtime? [/quote]
