Description

Most strong-willed kids struggle with sleep, so if bedtime feels like neverending pulling teeth at your house, join the club!

While I'm always going to advocate for nuance and individualization, confidence comes from having a diverse set of tools in your backpocket, so this episode is here to help you have a few more "tricks" up your sleeve.

Here's to a shorter bedtime routine for the kids and more time for revenge bedtime procrastination for the adults! :)


IN THIS EPISODE I SHARED:

  • Why you might need to rethink TV time before bedtime
  • How to embrace your "dread" + commiserate with your child
  • The script to say when you leave their room 

DON'T MISS:

  • What to do when they're acting like your old drunk college roommate
