Love and Logic Moment:

By Dr. Charles Fay

 

When I give an evening speech I have a hard time going to sleep right away. The adrenaline level in my body has to dissipate before I can sleep. When kids go full blast until bedtime they have the same trouble.

Parents who complain that their children have a sleep problem often discover the problem is that they are expecting their kids to make an abrupt switch from a high activity level to sleep. It is better for a child to slow down and then switch from “bedroom time” to sleep time.

Reduce the level of stimulation as bedroom time approaches. Reduce the noise level in the home. Replace excitement with soothing music and remember that it is difficult for anyone to make an abrupt change from a high activity level to settling down and going to sleep.

Wise parents don’t negotiate with kids about bedroom time. They know it is morally, legally, and psychologically sound to expect children to go to their rooms at a certain time every night. They know this does not damage a child’s psyche or self-concept. It is healthy for families to have a scheduled “rest time” for parents and “bedroom time” for children.

In our new DVD, Painless Parenting for the Preschool Years II, Charles gives parents of young children the tools they need to address common issues such as: bedtime, mealtime, potty training, misbehaving in public, and much more.

Thanks for reading! Our goal is to help as many families as possible. If this is a benefit, forward it to a friend.
