aibu to send her to school

[jellypopmummy]

Tomorrow is the first day of term (she's in p1) but my dd5 has decided to not go to sleep until 1:30am. She was put to bed at her normal bed time but has been up and down all night. I get her pattern might be wonky after xmas but she is doing the 'I need the toilet/water/cuddle' shenanigans, which just results in us taking her back to bed and not engaging. Am I being unreasonable to think she will just have to suck it up and deal or given her concentration will be off and likely her mood should I let her recover?

I know what you mean Worra, just currently struggling with dd who is 4. She is literally sobbing with tiredness daily. She napped for two hours up until starting reception and really can't cope without one now. Consequently as she is not CSA until after Easter we do keep her off the odd day when she is exhausted.

Thanks all. She went in and was fine, even lasted to her bedtime. Normally she is a good sleeper, just expect it is all the excitement of the holidays

my son has asd and learning disabilites sometimes his sleeping is terrible last yr he went through a phase where he would wake for several hours during the night i never kept him off school though i just wrote in his communication book he had a bad night he usually slept well the following night.
