[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is putting kids to bed sooo stressful? Really. "Go to bed". [/quote]

You must be trolling, or you have very compliant--or older--kids. [/quote]

NP. My kids have gone to bed well and STTN in their own room since 7 months for youngest, 9 months for oldest. We have a routine, we stick to the routine, and they go to bed nicely and stay in bed. Regardless of whether both parents, one parent or a babysitter or grandparent is doing the routine. So…yeah. If bedtime is a major problem, fix it. There are many guides and resources for parents who need help in this area.[/quote]

I mean, mine do this too but bedtime isn’t “go to bed.” It still involves a fair amount of wrangling - bath, into pajamas, books, etc. If you have an infant and a toddler, or two toddlers, you aren’t saying “go to bed” and heading out the door.[/quote]

Yeah, no one said otherwise. The point is YOUR SPOUSE does the wrangling while you enjoy a well-deserved night out. If one parent can’t handle bedtime, you either have kids with behavioral problems, or at least one completely inept parent. Again: resources abound, fix it.[/quote]
