[quote=Anonymous]ours is only 12, but will absolutely have a bedtime at 14. Recent research shows that it's best for everyone (adults too) to go to bed at the same time every night. You do mess up your sleep rythms if you have a later bedtime on weekends. I wouldn't enforce it too strictly. If there's a special reason for staying up late (sleepover, whatever) on one night that's fine. But I would discourage more than one late night in a weekend. We moved our son's bedtime an hour earlier over the last year. We had moved it to 10 PM or so for lights out, just because he was taking a long time to fall asleep, and we felt sorry for him. But he was tired all the time, so we slowly moved it to light's out at 9:00. He still takes a long time to fall asleep, but he lives with it, and is much happier/healthier for the earlier bedtime.[/quote]
