[quote=Anonymous]My youngest is 14 and I don’t remember when I stopped enforcing her bedtime, so it has been years. I was much stricter with my oldest but still wasn’t enforcing a bedtime at 15. With my oldest, we had some big battles and went to natural consequences. There were some hard lessons learned by DS and by us that paved the way for more relaxed parenting for the younger kids. But if you really want to take electronics, charge them in your bedroom. That’s parenting 101. And cut the WiFi. Even the 8 year olds are getting up to sneak the iPads in the kitchen, mom. My biggest rule is that they have to get up for whatever they need to do the next day and the bigger rule is that they can’t keep me up at night. That by far is #1. So I don’t care when they go to bed, but no late night loud calls, loud gaming, cooking and now driving past a certain time because I can’t sleep. [/quote]
