Somehow, every kid naturally has the instincts of a high-priced attorney when it comes to negotiating at bedtime.

According to a new survey, the average parents with young kids spend 34 minutes a night on the bedtime process . . . which adds up to almost nine full days a year.

And the average kid uses three excuses every night to try to drag out bedtime.

Here are the 10 most popular excuses:

I’m not tired . . .

I’m hungry . . .

I need to use the potty . . .

I’m thirsty . . .

I want another story . . .

I’m too hot or cold . . .

I finally want to tell you about my day . . .

I want a kiss from the other parent . . .

I need a specific toy . . .

I want to cuddle.
