[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 515186"] I think that he gets enough sleep. He has always been really good about going to bed. Somehow I just got into his head that bed time was bed time and I was not going to argue about it. Sometimes he's laying in his bed watching televison and he gets comfy and he falls asleep. As far as an alarm clock goes, he has one. But he sets the alarm for 4:30 am. He gets up when the alarms goes off, and goes right back to bed. Sometimes he manages to get himself up about an hour or so later, sometimes he doesn't and expects me make sure that he gets up. Sometimes I wake up early and can get him up, sometimes I wake up when it's time for me to get up and if he's not up I'll get him up. The alarm clock that he has can be set to two different alarm times, but he refuses to let me show him how to set it so it will go off twice. "It's too hard!" he tells me. It wouldn't be too hard if you would just listen to me and let me show you how! I do think that part of it is the Friday burnout things, too. He truly hates school and I think that he works really hard to keep himself together while he's there. I do think that by the end of the week he's exhausted by the effort. Does that make sense?
