[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Ugh. This is what I was afraid of. I probably wouldn't care as much if my kid could hang with it, but she really can't. She's never been able to cope on no sleep, from infancy on. I don't want to not allow sleepovers, but the no sleep thing is simply so much worse for her than it appears to be for her friends, I really don't know how to handle it. It seems like a courtesy to me that parents could at least make sure the kids get SOME sleep, but it seems I'm an outlier here.[/quote] Give her earbuds and let her listen to white noise. Tell her to go to sleep when she is tired. This is what happens with my DD and her friends. There is always one or two at the larger sleepovers that need to go to sleep earlier or just want to. When it's one on one, I usually let them self-regulate. To a point. If it's 1-2 a.m., things get shut down. But, DD is pretty on par with the ones she has over/goes to.[/quote]
