Any mom confirms that getting her child to sleep at night is no easy feat. Kristen Bell opened up about how she was having problems with her daughter Delta falling asleep and staying in bed, and so she and Dax Shephard came up with an interesting way of getting her to sleep.
“My three-year-old decided to stop sleeping about nine months ago,” the actress admitted (via Fame10). “ … and she will move furniture, and she bangs on the door with different, hard toys. We turned the lock on the outside… I know that’s controversial. But we lock it when she gets in there, and we stand outside and say, ‘We love you, we will talk to you in the morning, but now it’s time for sleep.’ And after about 10 minutes, she’ll wind herself down.”

She said in an interview that the child no longer values the one present. "They don’t even know what they’re expecting; they’re just expecting stuff."
