This is a very opinionated question, so I don't know how much I can help, but as the babysitter of four kids around this age- I would suggest telling Timothy that he can take a nap if he wants, but he still has to go to bed early- (8 or 9 or whatever.) he doesn't neccesarily have to sleep, but he does have to stay in bed quietly and not disturb his mother. (my family does the same thing, they're allowed to read or talk to each other quietly if they're the 2 that share a room.) Likewise if he doesn't take a nap and becomes grouchy, he could be "punished" by going to bed earlier, which may end up helping. Timothy might be agreeable to not taking a nap because you could frame it like him being a "big kid."
You could also just make it so his naps are shorter, and wake him up on your own instead of letting him sleep for a full 2-3 hours.
Answer:
I would say that the best answer for this question: Which rhetorical device is used in these lines, would be: hyperbole, or exageration.
Explanation:
Rhetorical devices are mechanisms of figurative speech, used by writers to convey their message in the best way possible, while at the same time encouraging the flourishing of emotions and feelings in the reader, to ensure the best comprehension of it. There are many such devices to be used from, and sometimes, you can use several in a simple paragraph, but in this particular case, we have a hyperbolic use of language. The language used by the speaker, and the sense of desperation conveyed by the words, like "I haven´t time to think", or "Advertisements everywhere", gives you the idea that literally, this speaker is surrounded by selling people and papers, and it conveys a sense of urgency and despair at being so surrounded. This is why it is a hyperbole.
