Hi All,
While wasting time (I have an interview this afternoon, first of 2016!) My PC was on I was doing something else and my Mum saw the CP lounge and Bob at the top hence the question who is the little green man at the top, reply 'Bob', 'Oh, he has a name','Bob crashed at Roswell in 1947', 'oh, thats where the US airforce had a crash, in the X -files','Yes, that one, there is a whole back story'.
So can I have a link to the history of Bob that Chris did. Tried search for it and got no-where.

During School days, I have tough time to wake my daughter (8 years ) on time. She will always ask for extra 5 minutes of "beauty sleep"( Her own words) in recursive fashion. Come weekend and when I want to sleep extra few hours or so , she almost wakes up in time or little earlier and wants breakfast immediately.
Any suggestion how to convince them to sleep extra during weekends ?
cheers,
Super

(a) It's a child process ==> software
(b) It should never be rebooted ==> not Windows
==> Probably a Linux/Android process.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Tell her that, for now, she will have to go to school on week-ends
That should work.

My three kids wake up at 6:30AM, no matter what. My wife is an early bird, so this is not really a problem for her, I cared at bit about the neighbour at the beginning, but they had to get used to it.
We tried and forced the kids to stay in bed until 7:30 on the days they went to bed late the preceding evening, so they could catch up some sleep, which resulted in loud cross-room communication and them not sleeping, so we gave that up.
Suggestion: You are not against screens, so let her watch TV when she is up in the morning. You are against screens (so are we), then ... cope with it, there is no legal and safe solution

My daughter can only watch TV in the morning when:
- she is dressed up
- Has her hairs done
- finished breakfast
- put on her shoes
By that time she needs to go to school. So no TV in a playful way in the morning during schooldays

She loves to watch some kids video in laptop but we don't allow to her have access to youtube in our absence.
TV is ok but for some reason she wants to spend some play timer with her dad, especially she wants to play "hide and seek".
So I will wait for few more years she becomes a teen

There you go : you only need to find a place in your house where you can sleep and are very hidden.

Teach her to cook, stops her asking for breakfast and she can have yours ready for when you get up.

My son (3 years old) gets up at 6.00 AM every morning, no matter if it's weekend or not...
...I don't have solution for this either, but at least you now know that you are not alone

Tell me about it! My two are woken and turfed out of their fetid pit at 6:45 to leave home at 7:30; any later and I can't get them to school on time.
My elder, bless her cotton socks, is awful. If I can get her downstairs and maybe even to look at a slice of toast by 7:20 then I am winning. This morning I even cooked BACON and she still didn't manage to get up. The weekends are however no different. She is a teenager and is permanently glued to her computer. Come meal times I sometimes just switch off the internet router rather than waste my breath calling her.

My daughter, now in her 30s with her own teenagers, has started implementing my successful strategy for extracting teenagers from their beds. 1 warning, wait 2 minutes and strip the blankets off and inject a glass of cold water.
You only have to do this a couple of times to demonstrate your willingness to drown the little sods, after that the threat is adequate.

I had the same problem for a long time. Woke up at 7AM no matter what and woke me up too with "Daddy, play!" Now that he's 11, he plays Minecraft online with his cousins so he leaves me alone. Wait it out.
