I think ds's molars are coming through and he has had bouts of temperature and been whingy for days. He's just fallen asleep on the sofa, after a rotten night. Is it lazy to just leave him?

I wouldn't risk it I'd let him have 15 mins tops but I confidently predict I will be in the minority here

I would let him have a catnap, then switch on ceebeebies and get him to bed early

I would wake him as I would rather have a grizzly baby awake in the day than a grizzly one up all night!!

Wake him up - you know you'll regret it later!
