my kids do same if I try to settle them in their room.

we did have dd going to sleep in her bed for awhile, but one of us was sitting there for hours, and she went through stage of kicking the wall... if dh falls asleep too it takes less time but I just got over it, so moved back to waiting till they fall asleep on couch with me. I wwould love for them to fall asleep in their beds, but ran out of energy and ideas to try to make it happen.
