Figured I'd toss up a quick whine thread.

Daughter skipped her nap and is peak obstinant today. Having to "trick" her into following the schedule.

"I don't want bath! I want read book!"

We'll read some books in bed after your bath sweetie.

"Noooooooo!"

Well I'm gonna get a bath, see you later.

"No! No I want baaaaath!"

Just max threenager today.

My kid is school aged and has been a real champ about following the schedule. But they have been obviously exhausted. Getting up this morning was tough I told them they should go to bed early. And they did. Just past 6pm. This kid never wants to go to bed. Real tired one right there.
