My son was always an early riser, 5am and he would be wide awake and ready for the day, as a toddler he would get into my bed or we would get up and chill together, then as he got older, yes Babs when he was 8, he would get the put the tv on and grab some food, sometimes I would get up with him and other times not. I still managed to go to work, be a single mum and stay awake till at least 10pm. Now he is a teenager and is happily in bed till midday, probably because he happily stays up will 2am, and I am now woken by our OAP cat at 4.30am most mornings
Babs stop moaning, let him go to bed later and let him get up and you stay in bed. Soon enough he won't want you and then you will be moaning you miss the early morning wake ups. It's not like you can't chill all day whilst he isn't school.
