[QUOTE="slsh, post: 524917, member: 8"] What worked for us, miraculously, was we had a set routine for bedtime - bath, reading a book to him, tucking him in, nightlight on. thank you at 5 rarely would stay in bed but somehow we got across the point that at bedtime he had to stay in his room. He could read in bed (he was a voracious reader) or play *quietly* with toys, but that was it. I honestly can't tell you why, but it's probably the only rule he followed until he was... 19??? :winking: Takes time to establish routine, and then you have got to be completely consistent with it - no exceptions. Doesn't work for all, but definitely worth a try. [/QUOTE]
