This is happening to me AS I TYPE this!

Tonight DH said to DS "When it's time for bed I don't want you to get up, ask for the toilet or ask to brush your teeth" to which DS replies "But it's funny"....SERIOUSLY!

The time here is now 9:50 and I've put him back to bed about 6 times. We've had...toilet, teeth, got a pimple, a scratch, need a drink, a cuddle excuses. I usually just lead him back to bed saying the same thing every time...."back to bed, it's time for sleep" I can see this is clearly a phase and I know he'll get over it soon I HOPE!

I agree with some others with the bed too....just make one bed her bed....to me, it doesn't really matter if they get out, come out of their room....they will get it eventually. It is frustrating, but I think there are worse things they could be doing.

Hope your DD gets over it sooner rather than later
