[quote=Anonymous][quote]We want our kids to have healthy sleep habits and routines, not get into the "up until 3 AM" routine. [/quote] Same here. Except on rare occasions, our kids aren't allowed screen time within 1 hour of bed time (oldest is in 8th grade) and we don't usually let them sleep one hour past their normal wake up time. We have a small house so it's not usually an issue. Once the younger kids are up (they tend to get up the same time every day as do DH and I), the noise level rises. Two of my kids have ADHD as does my DH. I've seen the effects of poor 'sleep hygiene' and are working to instill the habits/knowledge in my kids (ADHD or not) that my DH lacked. I grew up on a farm so there was never any sleeping in. Not trying to lay my upbringing on my kids but it instilled some good habits that I continue to benefit from.[/quote]
