I always equated naps and potty trained children wearing pulls up the same. A child who is truly potty trained would not pee in a pull-up simply because it is on. And a child who is truly not in need of a nap would not fall asleep just because it is nap time. Does that make sense?
Hopefully this discussion doesn't go any further than today.
Absolutely agree with that comparison! I have a kid right now who does not sleep. She lies quietly on her bed for the full rest time. My own kids would lie in their beds and not fall asleep.
