You are sending him mixed messages, if you lay down with him he has won and he knows he has, you have to be consistant in your behavior,no laying down with him, to him it is a game because you give in, it becomes a battle of wills, so read him some stories say goodnight and leave him, if he yells ignore it , if he gets out take him back,yes it will be over and over, but if you stay with it, he will get it into his head its not working. Does he sleep during the day? as if he does at day care or at home he wont be tired enough. Oh and no talking to him when you take him back to bed , just quiet firmness.Good Luck
