Simple poll- phone in teenager's room

DD (13, nearly 14) has a lot of freedom to go out, meet friends etc. However I have 2 hard and fast rules:

  1. no phone in her room after school until her homework is finished
  2. phone left downstairs at night (bed time 10-10.30)

Apparently I am the worst and most unreasonable mother EVER and all her friends have their phone in their room at night. They may well do- I see lots of messages flashing up late at night once she's gone to bed but I don't trust that she'll go to sleep at a sensible time with her phone there. DH has already disabled WiFi on all her devices (laptop/ iPad/ phone) after 10.30 to be certain.

She's 13- is this too controlling and Aibu?

I wish someone would confiscate my phone at night.
