Do some parents actually go to check if their kids are asleep??

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yap mine would do 2 checks roughly. One about an hour after officially turning the lights out and then once before they went to bed (near midnight).

I learned their schedule after repeatedly getting caught reading and devised various strategies to counter this.

I arose a highly successful boy.

What were these various strategies?

Book lying flat under the pillow was a reasonable success.
