What time does your 13 year old go to bed/sleep - on a school night/weekend?

Bed at 9/lights off 10 on a week night. 10/10.30 at the weekend.

I'd say the same. But it would depend on how early they have to be up and how awake they were in the mornings

Thats the same, just wondering whether it was tiredness or hormones that could be causing the grunts!

PJs on by around 9.15 ish (ideally earlier before she gets knackered and grouchy) lights out by 9.30. She has to be up by 7am in the morning and is NOT a morning person at the best of times.

It's supposed to be 10 but is often 10.30 in practice. Pretty quick to sleep once in bed. Usually same at weekends. He wakes up at 7 regardless of whether it's a school day or not. 11 yo struggles going to bed at 9/9.15 and getting up at 8 so she'll be going much earlier than him when she's 13.

Just turned 14 and it's supposed to be lights out at 10pm, more often than not it's 10.30pm before her lights go out. She's up at 7am.

We have to ask her about three times before she goes up at the moment and then we get annoyed. She then has to do hair, clean face and teeth (in all fairness she has braces so happy she spends a long time over this part). Suggested she does some of this earlier, but doesn't.
