She's 6...almost 7 and in year 2 ....last night she couldn't settle and was awake till one 10.00pm....she then woke up at 4.30 am and thught it was time to get up!

I tried to get her to go back but I am crap in the morning and instead I lay on the sofa while she watched tv...she was totally hyper...still is...leaping about and whooping....I posted about her only yesterday because of her reluctance to do her homework and her sleeping issues....it's got progressively worse over this year...she was great untl she turned 6.

She's never been this bad though...now she i totally hyper and hs had some brekkie but I can tell she's byond tired....she is lierally staggering.

Her school is quite tough...they' don't baby them at all and I know the day eill be a nightmare for her....especially the afternoon.

I have told her she is never to watch any DVDs during the week anymore...she becmes obsessed with them...watches one three times in a day and I think this is what has unsettled her...she never even wanted to watch a film until the last 6 months and now it is like she's making up for lost time!

Are you unwell yourself?

Why were you unable to function?

Mine would have been at school all day. Mucking around at night shouldn't be rewarded with a day off school.

No question-at school all day if she was mine.

Bloody hell!!

A father who gets her out of bed to play, and a mother who rewards her again with half a day off!!!!
