help I am being held hostage from my two boys. they dont want to go to bed. Sad

I tried everything I fed them again. tape. talking... etc.. they are in bed at this moment. but are loud and rude... they are trying to outrude each other.... they are not geting out of bed but I would appriacate some peace and quite.sigh it is almost ten oclock...

the problem is that my younger one didnt fall asleep at 6:30 and kept the older one up and up and up.... Confused

I am sorry Raizy, wish I could come by and help!

I do understand that now, because of my daughter, climbing out of her crib, I literally have to lay down for an hour before she will fall asleep...that is an hour where I can only THINK of the things I need to do.

At least you don't have to hold a wiggling crying baby who is refusing sleep for the past hour and a half. I want peace and quiet AND a break for my aching back!

I'm not in the situation so I'm not sure, but what about a rule like "you're welcome to stay awake as long asyou are in bed quietly. take a book or listen to music or something"

good luck!

Raizy you're title makes me laugh, thanks I needed that today LOL

Oh and if I were you I would tell them they can read a book, but any talking or out of bed, then seperate one even if it means telling one he will sleep in the washroom/ laundry room whereever but not the playroom Exclamation

he had to run to a shir that his rav from out of town is here. too complicated to explain...

so he left and I was stuck with the kids. well after the shir I called him up and told him that the two boys woke up my girl and the baby... so he came home two minetes later and it '

WAS NIGHT in my house.... lol

but the next day I had a little surprise waiting on his car. a ticket he parked at the wrong side of the street... he forgot about it and so now we have a ticket to deal with..... not so good ending to this story....

tefila I do seperate them but I didnt feel like budging .... and the only other place in my house is the toy room on the couch!
