[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here... we tried melatonin - can’t tell yet if it is helping. To answer a few questions from other posters - She is very athletic and she does play a sport 3x a week plus has friends on our street she plays with. Screen time has picked up since the pandemic but honestly, who hasn’t experienced that? She has always been a strong-willed, independent child. No signs of ADHD. [/quote] Translation, op and her dh let dd run the roost, and do not parent. Woman, act like a parent and tell that child to cut the crap.[/quote] +1 Also OP and spouse need to wake that kid up at 6:30 am or so and go for a walk or a jog or something. If the weather is too icky then all lights on and the kid MUST get out of bed regardless. They need to change her sleep pattern and they need to make sure she is getting more exercise. Add in some household chores to fill time and tire the kid out.[/quote]
