After four nights of not knowing whether Jeremy was serious or not saying
he wanted me to put his crib side back on, I decided this evening he was and
put it back on. I was suspicious that he was simply trying to delay bedtime
by asking for me to do it right as I would put him in his crib. He often now
pouts and asks for mommy to come in and say goodnight again it what also seems
like an emerging stall tactic. But, tonight I asked him if he wanted it back
on before I even started stories (I said it would mean we'd have less time
for stories, although I don't have great confidence that negotiation with
time means much to a two-year-old).
