[quote=Anonymous]OP, speaking from experience here I think he is going to bed too early. I would start bedtime routine around 8pm with the melatonin until you can gradually cut the melatonin back. I went through awful periods with my now 4yr old. Ultimately moving bedtime back stopped the two plus hours of fighting. Milk, back rubs, closing the door and sitting outside, putting her back to bed without talking, no eye contact 25 times in a row….none of it worked. Moving back the bedtime and understanding that 7pm or whatever wasn’t working anymore…that worked. Also, he may need that daytime nap.[/quote]
