What age did your children stop actively asking for a bedtime story?

Or if they still enjoy it, how old are they currently?

My 12yo ds still asks for it before settling himself down at night. Not every night but we always have a good adventure book on the go. We pick books he would never choose for himself and he obviously still gets a lot out of it and so do I but I'm aware he's probably in a minority by now.

I'll be a bit sad when it does end.

At 14 my DD gently told me that she needed more time for homework (probably meant gaming!) and could we stop bedtime stories.

I gave in gracefully but missed it! Over the years we'd done all of Narnia, Eragon, Harry Potter, Alex Rider, Dark Materials etc.
