Do you enforce a bedtime for teen sleepovers?

| I don’t have teens yet, but I remember not having one at that age for sleepovers, as long as we stayed quiet and out of trouble. |

| No, they just couldn't keep us awake. |

| No. I don't allow sleepovers if we have something important the next day. |

| No way you can control any bedtime for any teen, unless you're willing to confiscate all electronics and stay awake listening at the door. |

| LOL - Good luck with that. How exactly do you intend to enforce that? |

| No, even at age 8 I caught the kids up watching a movie at 3am, long after I thought they were sleeping. |

| I also have a 14 year old and you just can't. DD will stay up nearly all night when she has sleepovers, so I discourage them as much as I can. Instead, I take her and her friends to evening events and drop off after, or they hang out at each other's house and I pick her up/drop them off at 10. They don't seem to mind it too much, as long as they get to stay out until 9 or 10, and DD isn't nearly as grumpy the next day. |
