I'm out of tricks

If there was ever a mother of the year award, guarantee I would NEVER in my lifetime , win it.

My boys are probably the naughtiest children alive. 

Every night, and I mean EVERY DAMN NIGHT, I fight with them to go to sleep.
I know parents who send their children to bed at 8 or 9pm and they have no problem.

My children, I send them to bed, and I hear them fighting 
(mainly because the little one is bullying the older one)
I send them to bed at 8:30pm - 8:40pm they're in the kitchen claiming to get some water.
They come up with all different excuses just so they don't go to sleep.

10:30pm - the older one is finally out for the night
11pm is the little one's bed time
For some odd reason, this boy will not sleep until the clock hits 11pm

Taui's daycare mother hen is always reporting him 
beating, biting & bullying other children at daycare.

Tai's teachers reported this in his report card, 
"Tautai is very bright, reads well, has great ideas, perfect pronunciations, perfect phonics, perfect motor skills - BUT he talks too much, and sometimes debates with teacher. He loses attention fast and does not listen when teacher is talking". In other words, Tautai is a lil fiapoko

Last week Tuesday, my neighbor knocked on my door looking like she wanted to knock my face in because my 2 year old threw his toy truck at her 10year old son and hit him between the eyes - and refused to say 'sorry' for what he did. (this kid has issues)

So I've tried talking to these very naughty children of mine
I talked nicely-calm & collected wooooosaaahhhh
and I've also let the 'fusipa'u' and the salulima do the talking

If you can get your children to bed by 8pm, get them to be nice and not be bullies, please share!

I Just wanted you to know- that you are not alone. I have 2 girls...and similar dramas-fighting whinging and all sorts of excuses to try to keep them out of bed (seriously, its like they are afraid they will miss out on life and just need to be AWAKE for every minute of it!!) ...and the punching, throwing things at each other scratching etc....some days I feel like all Ive done all day is yell at someone to stop doing something...blimey its tiring!!Lol

Doc, you kinda made me feel better (just a tad bit) about not getting these kids to sleep on time. I'm close to locking them in the closets until they sleep lol
