Nap time terror

My advice is put him in and leave him. Go back after a bit don't say anything lay him down and leave. Go again after half an hr. Say nothing lay him down leave. Make the going back stretches longer and longer he'll learn to self soothe. Good luck.

I eat food spicy, I have let him lick a piece of chicken once (was spicy) he didn't like it, yet kept asking for more, its not like he is hungry, he just wants to eat the same thing when he sees someone else eating...

Yes I am going to put him and let him fall asleep on his own. The only thing that bothers me is that his crying will disrupt the other children, but they are already bothered by him anyway.
I lay down at night and hear him crying in my ears although he is not there. His parents specifically asked me to rock him as that's what they do at home but its not working for me. I hadn't thought about the exhaustion thing but you're probably right.

I'll give it a go starting today, thanks for the advice
