Lights out!

Article Abstract:

A father discusses his young daughter's fear of the dark, and her refusal to go to sleep without her older sister in the room. This poses a big problem, because the sister is 14 years older, and goes to bed much later than the younger daughter. He relates this to a similar experience he had as a child.
