We have a situation at home and looking for a solution for that.
My older son, about 4 and half years old, does not sleep in the afternoon. He goes to pre-school from 9am to Noon. After the school, he does not sleep. It takes a lot to put him to bed. It takes more than 1 hour to put him to bed. Also, if he goes to bed, he is so energetic at night that he cannot sleep early and he is late for his school in the morning.
If he does not sleep in the afternoon, he is so tired at about 5 pm that he is out of his senses. Because he is so tired, he starts hitting everyone and does not have energy to do anything. We try to put him to bed earlier, but the soonest it works out is about 8pm. The last couple of hours every day are very hard, because he does not have the energy to do anything.
What should we do ? It becomes very hard in the evenings.
