Hello, I'm a lurker not a poster, but I am having a real issue with my eleven year old boy. He is not going to sleep until 11.30pm or later every night even school nights. He says he cannot get to sleep and gets cross and frustrated with "trying" which makes it worse. I have tried suggesting everything I can think of to help but nothing seems to work. He's tired all the time, very bad tempered and touchy, lethargic and doesn't want to do anything. It's feels like we've lost our lovely boy to teendom already. He's not being bullied, seems to be doing ok at school and doesn't seem to have any worries. Please share your wisdom on what can I do, thanks.
