What ages are your children and what time do they go to bed? My parents always used to insist that I went to bed as a child at 7pm, until I was 11 when I could go to bed at 8pm. They didn't care if I was asleep, just that I was in my pyjamas and in bed so that they could have some time to themselves (I could read or watch TV). I remember feeling upset about it growing up... wanting to carry on playing with friends etc but feeling forced to go to bed. So just wondering what people do with their own kids?
