Wont stay in bed/crib for nap or bed time

[rebelmommaof3]

My son has figured out how to climb out of his crib i did the whole turn it around thing and thats not working out so well. I have 2 other kids and i try to keep bed time at the same time for everyone but when he dont nap he goes to bed a little earlyer then the other 2. if i lay on the floor next to the crib he stays in it but my body cant take laying in the room til he falls asleep if i sit in there he just thinks its play time please help i dont know what to do

How old is he? Does he go to sleep better when he skips the nap? Do you think he's at that point where he's ready to not have a nap?

I don't have any great ideas but I'll bump this for you so other people can chime in.
