Child cries every time dad reads at bedtime
We take turns to read to our 3 year old child at bedtime, one night is my turn and the next, my partner’s. But when my daughter is tired (90% of the nights) she makes a drama that she only wants me and a not dad (and let me say that no dad is lovely). It’s heartbreaking for everyone, but we’ve kept the routine as we thought it’s fair to me (so I have space) and dad (who likes to read to her). But we’re starting to wonder if it’s the right approach. Any thoughts? Thanks
I don’t have much advice expect my daughter is the exact same towards me, she prefers to have dad do bedtime and will freak out if i try to do it with her, even during the night she’ll call out for her dad and she really won’t like it if I go in to see if she’s okay she only wants dad x
