ok, I KNOW she is a highly sensitive child, I KNOW she is feeling unhappy about the prospect of school tomorrow for first time in two weeks, I KNOW she needs nurturing, I KNOW she needs love and attention etc etc etc but honestly, after spending three hours on and around the bedtime routine tonight and her still crying as I left the room I wonder what to do next
I don't want to leave her upset but quite honestly I was going to undo all of the good work I've put in since 6pm if I stayed in there one more second!
she is 6 and we are following the guidelines set out in what to do when you dread your bed in an attempt to bring some sort of sanity to our evenings but honestly, there are times (many!) when I have just had enough!
phew, I really needed to offload that...
anyone else have one of these?
