He probably does need more sleep than he's getting. Keep in mind I'm not an expert at sleep issues with infants, and at his age it's a bit young to apply any of my language strategies.

He refuses to go to bed any earlier and is now staying up later than his usual bedtime. I need help I feel as though my child is an insomniac. He is on the go all day long and still refuses to sleep. Why is he not getting tired? My 13 month old son has recently stopped napping altogether, which I assumed would make him have an earlier bedtime, however this is not the case.

I'll sit down and discuss with my 13 month old toddler what we'll do after nap time. That'll solve the problem. A young toddler simply does not understand the concept of 'later' or 'after'.
