My daughter is 3years 3 months old. She just doesn’t want to sleep in the afternoon. I still try and force her to sleep for 1-1.5 hours. Then she sleeps very late in the night around 12. I want her to come to normal schedule. Is it an indication for me to skip her afternoon nap? What is the right thing at her age?
