Any parent knows that getting the kids out the door for school on time with everything they need, can be a mammoth task. But one mum has made mornings a lot easier by getting her son to sleep in his school uniform every night.
Rachel, who is a teacher, believes it speeds up the morning rush and helps it run smoothly. While she has been dubbed "cruel" in the past for her unique idea, a number of people have admitted their children do the same.
Rachel, who has become a TikTok and YouTube sensation with her baby learning videos, raked in a whopping nine million views after admitting, "I dress my little boy for school at night".
The content creator, better known as Miss Rachel, explained: "We put on a nice new shirt, sweatpants - super comfy and great for jammies - and then when he wakes up we just thrown on sneakers. Someday I'll teach him to wake up for school and get dressed and that will be a very good thing to teach, but I can't do that right now.
"And that's OK I'm doing my best and so are you and I love you." Rachel added: "he bathes at night, he doesn't get sweaty at night. If he did, we'd grab new clothes. What's your favourite tip or trick? We love this for us."

People rushed to share their thoughts on the mum's hack and opinions are divided. "Takes five mins to get them dressed," one individual said. Another added: "It's always good to be fresh in the morning and let them bathe when he wakes up. When kids sleep they sweat."
One TikTok user commented: "I can't even imagine this I'll be honest. In the UK we're so ingrained in nightwear then day wear. I think it's because of the weather." "Please tell me this is a joke," another shocked view said.
A number of parents admitted they were pleased Miss Rachel had be honest about her hack. One commented: "We love you, thank you for letting us know that some people's 'normal' is not always everyone else's 'normal'."
Another American user said: "My mom dressed me while I was sleeping every morning until middle school." A third added: "I started doing this for my autistic daughter and it saves SO much time and energy." Another user commented: "My 13-year-old does this. She says she hates getting out of warm clothes in the morning."
