Grinity,
Once again, your DS reminds me of my DS. Even as a baby, he would keep himself awake (until 11:30, if necessary) until I was in the room. We tried the Ferber method, but that was a short-lived disaster. No doubt he was tired, but wouldn't go to sleep by himself. Of course, he's upstairs by himself, poor guy. I don't blame him for being scared. He seems to function tired, but he needs more sleep. There's just not enough time in the day for him to do what he wants to do, especially since so much of it is spent in school.
Hey Questions! Good to see you!
Glad to hear you have a protester on your hands as well:
Mind trip:
I'm visualizing all the 'I just won't give in to sleep no matter what the cost' kids picketing as they walk in ACS's circles:
Heck No We Won't Go!Heck No We Won't Go! Heck No We Won't Go!
It took me a long, long time to recognise the difference between functioning pretty well tired, and needing sleep. What kid has the gumption to fight nature? - Our kids!
Smiles,
Grinity
