[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those who kids go to bed after you, do your kids wake up on their own? My son is starting 9th grade and struggles to get to bed at a reasonable time and to wake up on his own. I’d like to get him to start figuring this out but it’s been a real struggle. [/quote] I tell mine to go to bed and enforce it.[/quote] How do you enforce a teen goes to sleep? You force their eyes closed?? Lay in their bed until they’re asleep like a toddler? [/quote] NP - we also enforce a 10pm bedtime for our seventh grader. That means making sure the lights are out in her room. If she turns them back on, we turn them off. That doesn't happen more than twice. She's not allowed to have devices in her bedroom. She gets up around 7:15am. Sleep is so important for kids, including adolescents. So, yeah, we're willing to be rigid about it. We've been rigid about it since they were babies, so they're used to it by now.[/quote]
