Answer:
Parents like routine because it helps them to make the connection between the time/schedule (or straying from the routine) and behavior, and it offers is a structured place for mealtimes and nap times.
Adults who have a daily routine always know when the next break in the day is whether it’s to scarf some semblance of a lunch, relax (ha!), possibly nap (ha, ha!) and of course, take care of business.
Those that say ‘No Thank You’ to having a routine, often complain how restrictive a routine is and the sense of monotony it exudes.
I understand that people don’t want to feel tied to the clock each and every day and sometimes, just don’t like that much structure. Some days I don’t either, but a routine is how I juggle having twins and a toddler who nap, take quiet time, are active in sports, go to school, eat, sleep, and play.
While I understand that having a routine can feel monotonous, structure is proven to be a comfort to children and helps them to better regulate their bodies and emotions when their internal clocks are in synch from following a general rhythm each day.
