Hi All
I'm hoping someone can help me with my 4.5 year old boy. We have had him 2.5 years and he's never been a good at going to bed and sleeping through is hot and miss. However the last 2 weeks is horrendous 😭 he comes down constantly with one excuse after another. He wets the bed on purpose and says now I don't have to sleep in my bed. He generally is doing this til 11pm and when we go to bed he sometimes still carrying on with the silliness. Whether it be singing dancing chucking stuff through bannisters. We have done everything with punishment. Reward charts overly loving too harsh ignoring him the lot and absolutely nothing has worked. He has Had D some changes and I know as we all know in the adoption circles that this is a big thing etc but I really don't believe that it is to do with the changes. We have had chats to him so has nursery and he says I just think it's funny he isn't scared. Hes OK during the day we have the usual listening problems but just like any child just bedtime. He's shattered so r we. He has big black eyes and he just is relentless. I'm really finding it hard as we both work and not getting any evenings to ourselves. I have researched stuff. Spoke to friends and family and I'm doing everything but it's not working. So anyone have any suggestions. I'm desperate 😩😩
