We are having a very hard time right now in our house. I have NEVER been one of those moms that has a schedule for her children. For the first 3 years of being a mother we were always on the go. I would laugh at my girl friends that couldn't do something because that would be their child's nap time. I would say between work and being at my moms, my children hardly ever fell asleep in there own beds. Well now that I have a wonderful house and I truly enjoy being home, my children are confused. I have been trying to get my children to go to bed before 10pm for about a year now. I really feel like I have tried everything, it just isn't happening. Paislee is deadly afraid of her bed. She won't even lay in it with me. Rylan will lay in bed for a little while and then he is out and about. I would love any help I can get right now. Last night I was trying to get laundry done and Paislee was not having it. I finally told her to go get her blanket and lay down while finished the laundry. Mind you it was 10:15pm by this time. It took her about 2 minutes and she was out. I am struggling big time and need suggestions please.

I started out with taking things away from them. Such as, my kids are BIG computer geeks. If they didn't go to bed when asked then they didn't get to play on the computer the next day. Kenzi is scared of her room too. Can't seem to figure out why but I told her if she lays in her bed I'll leave the light on but she had to go to sleep. If she didn't I'd turn the light off. If she'd start crying after that then I'd close the door. I know, meanest mom in the whole world. lol But it's been working for a while.
