I got the "just lay there, it's like sleep" thing from my parents too. They admitted when I was older that they really needed their downtime too, and as long as I was laying in bed, that was good enough for them :) The idea was that I'd get bored enough laying there that I'd just fall asleep. Not with an active imagination and a fear of the dark I wasn't! :)
