DD was tested by 2 schools and while getting the results was very validating, it didn't offer any solutions.
What did help was letting her choose her own sleep schedule once school ended. Oh my goodness. She is a new child. She now goes to sleep around midnight and then gets up around 11:00 AM. For her, that was the underlying issue that needed to be addressed. I don't know what we're going to do about this once kindergarten starts but for now, I am going to enjoy our peaceful summer together.
it never occurred to me to do that - although I would prob worry about missing adult only time with DH (just the hanging out talking stuff!) He starts work early. No way DD would want to be by herself.
