[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 8th grader and 11th grader goes to bed when they want. I think it’s wise to teach kids about judgment and natural consequences this way. They make it a point to go to bed earlier when they’ve miscalculated the night before or have a test. This is a pretty low risk example of slowly introducing more freedom/responsibility. We had bedtime rules in place until 7th grade.[/quote] +1 Kids in high school having to go to bed at 9 is nuts.[/quote] The kids in high school going to bed at 9 are ad hoc, I'm pretty sure. There is no way to have 9PM as a standard bedtime across the week because of extra curricular activities, tests, projects, etc. The kid who can do that every single day of the week is likely the kid who will face some challenges when applying to colleges.
