An eighteen year old has an enforced early bedtime regime imposed upon him by his dominant aunt.

When Philip turned eighteen his aunt was fearful of losing her dominance over him. She devised a plan that saw her engineer his expulsion from college and retain control of his trust fund. Now she was imposing her will further upon him by removing his ability to control his own bodily functions. She also was enforcing a ridiculously early bedtime that included the wearing of flannelette nighties. Combined with domestic duties, the threat of public spankings and ritual humiliation the next three years appear to be rather grim for Philip.

  1. I think that a daily 5:00 PM beddy-bye, wearing a flannelette nightie, is right for a 18 years "old" boy. But why only until his 21nd birthday? My stepson is today soon 27 y.o. and his beddies is also at 5 pm, also wearing a nightie, with light out at 6:00 after a light meal in bed.
    Jacky has a consistent job in an office which the boss is Silvia, one of my near friend. He has to be back home at 4:30 before showering then dinner in bed. His girlfriend and colleague (and even baby-sitter!) Lena sometimes goes with him after work, bathing him, putting him to bed, feeding him, sitting a while at his bedside talking or reading a story, before making him ready to sleep and kissing him nite-nite.
    Jacky sleeps in the former bed of my daughter. He doesn't wear nappies but has a potty in his closed room, since he isn't allowed to get up until next morning.
    On Saturday evening, provided he was a good boy during the whole week, his bedtime is delayed at 8:00 pm. Or otherwise, he has an earlier bedtime, eventually even all day punished in bed! I or Lena usually put him to bed earlier on Sunday, the latest at 4:00 pm.

    1. Sorry. I'm the stepmother of Jackie. I forgot to say my name is Sabine.
