Sweet Daughter has spent the last few months preventing Sweet Son from sleeping at nap time and at night. We finally got fed up (the problem clearly wouldn't solve itself) and decided to move the kids to their own rooms. More accurately, Sweet Daughter stayed in the current ultra child proofed room and Sweet Son moved to a new room. They now have some basic furniture in their rooms. They each have a dresser (bolted to the wall) and we gave them their bed frames back. We made a big deal out of it. We also went over a long list of things they are not to do with them. For normal kids this would have just given them ideas, for us it was all things they have already done.
The good news is that Sweet Son is now getting the sleep he needs and everyone is happy about that. The bad news is we have added a few more rules about the beds for Sweet Daughter. She moved the ENTIRE bed next to the door. She wanted to turn the light on more and keep me out of the room. She also moved the bed around the room and removed all of her wall decorations. The good news is they are the cheap removable stickers. The bad news is she tore every single one into pieces so now she has no decorations in her room.
This is as far as I could push the door open against her bed.
