[quote=Anonymous]Our rule was 9 pm for 8th grade and maybe you can compromise and give later on weekends? I want to say to say, somewhat perhaps unpopularly, that our rule for high school (starting summer after 8th) was that they could have phones when they wanted and have no bedtime (though phones were still charged downstairs). We felt like our kids needed time to learn to self-regulate before college. Once they knew that, 8th grade was a bit easier, but 9th was difficult for at least one of mine before he figured it out. Now one in college and one graduated college and everyone is pretty mature and doing well. [/quote]
