Childrens bedtime.

[itshappenedagain]

Hi! I have 2 DC's my DD is 5 and DS is 8. My Dd usually goes to bed between 7-730. And my DS Between 730-8. However I have my friends children staying same ages as mine and have be told by their parents they don't go to bed until 9. However one if them ( the youngest) has screamed most of the day as she was tired. I know there aren't any hard and fast rules, but it made me wonder.
When do yours go to bed?

5 and 9, very similar times to yours during term time. Slightly later in holidays but definitely by 8.30, for my sanity!

Mine are 8 & 5 they share a room they go up to bed about 7.30 but I let them watch TV for a bit before lights off. On a school night I try to aim for 8.30 lights off but I've been more relaxed about it during the holidays basically if they're quiet (ie not messing about ) & lied in their beds then I tend to leave them but they know If they start to mess tv & lights are straight off
