[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 104479, member: 3626"] It sounds like he had worked out a compromise that was what you wanted -- in bed and lights out by 10:30. At least then if he hadn't complied you'd have a good reason to say no the next time. If he kept his word and went to bed at 10:30, you'd have both gotten what you wanted. I know my daughter would offer compromises and I wouldn't really hear them because I was too busy getting my way. Not fair to her and caused a few battles that could have been saved. [/QUOTE]
