Bedtime hell this week

Has anyone else been suffering the effects of the clock going forward? My DD is 6 and refusing to sleep 😅😭 we've argued about it for over an hour so now she's in her room reading. I've given up basically because it's been such a battle this week (for me, she's been fine when DH has been putting her to bed). No clue what to do 😅 she usually goes to bed around 8pm and it's after 9pm now where I am. DH is out...

If she's fine with DH it's not the clocks it's that she knows you're a soft touch!

Say goodnight, close the door. Absolutely no need to argue for an hour with a six year old!

Ha ha and what about when she gets up and opens the door. She's normally great for me too, it's definitely been worse just this week.

Yup 2 year old twins - single parent - clock change is killing me this week - finally think we are at the end of it though and next night or so should be easier 🤞🏻

Erm...tell her not to? Ignore her? Explain to her what the consequences will be? Dress up as your DH so she goes back to bed?
