I put mine to bed after halftime show --9pm. Close to usual bedtime--but they were exhausted. One had 2 hour soccer tryouts, 2 basketball games and an indoor soccer game as well as 2 bday parties (which involved lots of running). He didn't put up any protest (10 years old

)...and slept until 8am today.
His little brother (7) is like my husband and exists on little sleep--he's always walking into our room at night and wakes up an hour earlier than older brother.
Every house/kid is different. I don't really care what others do.
Now--if this was the World Cup-- you can bet your ass my kids would watch the whole thing
