Or do you trust them to make sensible choices?
My two older dds are 14.5 and just turned 13 (Years 10 and 8). Lights out is supposed to be 10.30pm for older one and 9.45pm for younger. However this seems to be drifting and oldest is very often still pottering around past 11pm. Similarly with younger one, she is rarely in bed before 10.
I am quite strict about no phones or devices in rooms, they are left charging downstairs overnight. And I encourage them to turn screens off well before bedtime.
They are 'ok' at getting up in the morning, they don't exactly leap out of bed but not too bad.
So do you enforce strict bedtimes with consequences or trust they are getting enough sleep?
