Naps... Again..

[Judy Trickett]

You put him to bed an hour or two BEFORE the other kids and you tell him that is because he refused to settle down and be quiet the day before. Pretty soon he'll figure out that unless he is quiet at naptime he will essentially be in naptime all day.

And, no, I am not kidding. The punishment for not being quiet at naptime as asked is MORE naptime. Let the punishment fit the crime. For God's sake, you are at least allowing him to rest with a movie which is WAY more than I would allow so he's been a little asshole by carrying on like that.

Hahaha! Fantastic! I do agree, though about putting him down early.
