What is the definitive guide to Meredith Masony's approach to bedtime struggles with children?

Hi, I’m Meredith Masony from That’s Inappropriate/The Laundry Lady. Bedtime at my house is basically a hostage negotiation with tiny terrorists who suddenly need snacks, water, a deep emotional connection, and to discuss the meaning of life the second I say “Go to bed.”

From all my videos and posts, my “definitive guide” to bedtime is pretty simple:

1. Expect chaos (they will avoid bed every single night)
2. Use humor so you do not lose your mind
3. Pick a routine, stick to it, and don't fall for 37 fake emergencies
4. Remember you are not alone; every mom is fighting the same “go to bed” battle

What part of bedtime is the worst at your house right now?
