The parenting book claimed putting children to bed was a joyous dance between parent and child. The author clearly hadn’t met Fanny’s twins. Bedtime was a nightly war, won only when the boys surrendered to sleep. Tonight’s battle won, she poured a glass of wine and turned on the television.
Lol. Bedtime is can be cultural. Lol. 'Go to sleep.' Was an order, not a suggestion which was obeyed.
