[quote=Anonymous]My kids usually go to bed at 8, I'll probably let them stay up till 8:30-45 at the most? Only because they are terrors the next day when they don't get enough sleep, and they don't ever sleep in. I'll let them stay up in the summer for the 4th of July if it's on a weekday because they don't have school the next day, or at the beach, but not on a normal school night. If they loved football then I would reconsider, but they don't. To the others--it doesn't matter what you do, every family is different. But if your kid is "off" the next couple of days after you keep them up, more angry or defiant or weepy--don't be shocked or punish them...they're probably just a little tired. My friends who let their kids stay up late often complain about behavior the next day and don't admit that it's related. That's what annoys me, not the time you keep the kid up, but the refusal to believe that their behavior is affected.[/quote]
