[quote=Anonymous]Time for some tough love. No electronics after 9PM and must be ready for bed by 10PM (shower, tooth brushes etc). Let her read a book in bed but nothing else after 9PM, eventually with nothing else to do she's gonna be bored enough to just sleep. Also enforce a wake up time - how about a family breakfast at 7AM or brisk walk at 6:30AM, drag her out of bed. If she has to get up earlier, the late bedtime isn't going to feel too great. Look you gotta put your foot down - she's 9 and if she can get away with this she's going to try and overrule you on other bigger things later. I got a teenager so trust me on this.[/quote]
