WOH and sleeping issues
| Sun, 05-22-2005 - 10:34am |
We were at a dinner party last night at the home of one of dh's coworkers. They have 2 boys, 6 and 4. They have a bunch of sleeping issues (kids 'scared' at night, won't fall asleep in their own bed, won't go to bed without mom or dad cuddling them, etc.) The mom blames herself because since she works all day and misses them so much she tends to cuddle with them late at night and they fall asleep in a pile on the bed all together. She said that if she SAH, they wouldn't have the same issues.
I sah. For us, bed time is a rigid, welcome respite at the end of the day. Dh has no desire to keep them up either, lol.

Slacker....ummm no. The ability to trust my five year old to have fun and act in an appropriate manner when he is with friends without me buzzing around him constantly to remind him how to act....yes.
There is a big difference between slacker and trusting your 5 year old will behave appropriately.

"Keeping an eye on the kids is perfectly manageable with minimal effort and without making the gathering stressful or creating a situation that makes adult conversation or relaxation impossible."
That's your opinion, of course totally subjective, with which I totally disagree.

Or, if it's done my way, I obviously am doing something wrong and early childhood intervention should be called.
