[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 68208, member: 3626"] One thing I would suggest is to stay away from each other once you get him up. My mother would stay in her bedroom while I got ready for school. (I was not a nice person when I had to get up before my body felt it should.) Let him get himself ready. He's old enough. I'd just get him up and then let him fend for himself until it is time to go. My daughter is also a non-morning person. Worse yet, she's incredibly grumpy until she truly wakes up. Unless I absolutely have to, there is no way I'm going to be in the same room with her until she is fully awake and functioning. When she was in high school the rule was she was out of the house and on her way to school at 15 minutes before school started and, no, I didn't care if she was fully dressed, if her makeup was half on, if she didn't have your homework. She would have to suffer the consequences if not getting herself fully ready and I did not have to suffer through the battles because I was nagging her. [/QUOTE]
