Mum and Dad work on the sleeping child
When kids sleep it is often the best time to attend to children in the following ways:
* Insert a suppository
* cut fringe (a 2-year-old)
* take out a splinter
* put cream on
* take a Band-Aid off
* clean ears
* cut nails
I recently tried to take out a splinter and my daughter even woke up with an “ouch” and sat up, but in the morning said..why is the splinter still there?! So thankfully they don’t remember! Lucky for me my daughter managed to get the splinter out by herself during the day or I would have had to tackle it the following night for attempt two! My daughter likes me to do things at night because it is less painful.
I am sure there are other things people do at night to make life less stressful during the day…possibly cut off an item of clothing that needs to go!!!!!! For example a 2-year-old might scream and refuse to remove a top that you must hide because it is embarrassing. The night time procedure can save loads of tears, screams and rants and raves!
