Figured I’d toss up a quick whine thread.

Daughter skipped her nap and is peak obstinant today. Having to “trick” her into following the schedule.

“I don’t want bath! I want read book!”

We’ll read some books in bed after your bath sweetie.

“Noooooooo!”

Well I’m gonna get a bath, see you later.

“No! No I want baaaaath!”

Just max threenager today.

This time around, my wife and I simply decided “fuck DST” and shifted our entire schedule forward an hour. No change in sleep for anyone. It was glorious.

Obviously not gonna work when the kids start school, though.

I’d say they are old enough to handle it by then (mostly). One hour less sleep is less dramatic when they are six compared to two.

I’m sure your kids won’t mind arriving an hour late to school every day :D
