[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At ages 2 and 4 they should be eating dinner at 6, then bath and bed by 7pm at latest. Stop letting them watch tv at all during that window. Get them out of the house. [/quote] NP. It is ridiculous that you write this. This may be what works for you and your family, or what you prefer, but please don't make up universal rules. [/quote] DP here. There are many comprehensive child sleep studies that found 7pm is the most developmentally appropriate bed time for these ages. [/quote] +1000 People who say this are just too lazy to get their kids to bed at a normal hour and want to justify it. [/quote] How is it lazy if you don't put your kids to bed by 7? Doing so actually seems like the laziest, ship the kids off to bed as early as possible so you don't have to deal with them and have plenty of "me" time.[/quote]
