[QUOTE="Christy, post: 151884, member: 225"] It sounds like you have a morning routine in place. This is good. If getting ready is the issue, planning and doing as much as possible in advance will certainly help. The noise level is more difficult to fix. My son has no consideation for others and is always loud in the morning. Stomping around and yelling, even when he's in a good mood. He will often burst into our room on a Saturday morning to show or tell us something with no consideration for the fact that we are asleep. It's a losing battle. I'm not sure about the layout of your home but if you can put some space between your son and the sleeping areas of the house, that could help. Can you bring his clothes, toothbrush, etc.. to a diffierent area for him to get ready? We have a bath in the our basement level and when we have guests or someone is trying to sleep late. I take difficult child downstairs to get ready and play before everyon else is awake. To be honest, in our case, asking our son to be quiet only makes it worse. He enjoys having the power to annoy others. Ear plugs for husband might be a more stress-free way to go! Good Luck! Christy [/QUOTE]
