I love sleeping. I get excited about bedtime before I'm even out the door for the day, and I can't even wrap my head around why kids fight sleep so much. Sleep is the best! Bedtime is only trumped by naptime, and kids don't know how great they have it with early bedtimes and glorious naps.
Instead, they treat bedtime like torture and already-worn-out parents are beaten down even more by kids who pretend they are allergic to sleep. These funny parents from Twitter share our pain.
Sometimes the warning signs of bedtime problems start hours in advance.
