My son is 2 and is never asleep before 9.30 anymore, he used to be asleep by 7.30. He also takes ages to go to sleep for his day sleep. I have tried letting him not have a sleep but then he crashes around 4-5.
So I was wondering, when did everyone stop giving their kids days sleeps? I just feel 2 is a bit young to cut them out

Give him a day sleep but no more then 30-45 minutes. Its what all the sleep training books call a nap compared to sleeps that last longer. ???? Beats me but I think shorter day sleep is best option. That way by bed time he is tired again n ready for sleep.
Around 2 was when my daughter started cutting out her day sleeps and then would crash around 4-5. As time passed she would last to 7pm or so, give it time he will soon get used to not having day time sleeps and get into a routine. Kids evolve and change I think you just have to go with their growth and development x
My son is nearly 3 and still sleeps for 2 hrs down at 10am.. Up for lunch then full of beans ready for the afternoon.. Bed time at 7-7.30pm sleeps all night.....but all kids are different maybe try long running activities in the afternoon
