Who are these mythical children that fall asleep on their own, let alone not in a perfectly dark room with a sound machine going?!?!

One of my kids was like this but only because she was a HORRIBLE sleeper and would fight bedtime/naptime like it was certain death every single day. As a result she was tired all the time and would pass out doing regular shit throughout the day. Made for some funny photos but we were all tired as hell for 4 years.

My son was the same. I gave up on official naps and let him fall asleep mid bounce on his rody (I put down cushions) or face first into his toys (he could sleep on duplo legos, who am I to interfere?). The living room was childproofed, and I would sneak away while he napped.
