Podcast Episode 87: Listener Questions: Bedtime Routines and Sibling Fights
We get a lot of questions from parents here at No Guilt Mom. Everything from how to tame those toddler tantrums, to how can we handle those bedtime battles.
So we decided to host a podcast episode where we answer a listener’s parenting questions!
Our listener Peggy writes: “I can’t seem to get my kids (ages 2, 4 & 6) to bed on time because they are always waiting for me to come upstairs and they’re always struggling for the tv remote immediately they get home. How can I handle that?”
No worries Peggy! We’ve got you covered!

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll learn:
- Possible reasons your kids are fighting you at bedtime
- How to set up a reliable and effective bedtime routine
- How screens can impact your brain (especially before bedtime)
- 4 effective ways to curb sibling fighting
