I feel your pain I had a 2 1/2 year old who is now 3, her Mom made it clear last summer no more naps. It interfered with the child's ability to fall asleep at 8pm, she would freak out if she heard she napped. So I stopped telling her if she fell asleep on her own and it didn't truly interfere with jack. Then a few months ago she comes to me and asked that she take a nap just on Thursdays as she needs her to stay up till 10pm. WTF like these kids have on off switches or something.
My motto is if the sleep its because they need it!
My DH and I are sooooooo relaxed with our DD's bedtime and she is responsible enough at 5 years to tell us when it's bedtime. Don't get me wrong 11pm won't work every night but once I a while is it really a big deal?
