Yep, my bedtime was 8pm growing up, until middle school, then it was 9pm. 15-16 was when I stopped having a bedtime. I absolutely hated it at the time, especially in the summer because it would still be light out when I went to bed, and I never felt like I never ever felt like tired or like I needed to go to sleep at "bedtime".
In retrospect I'm glad I always had a full night's sleep, because I wouldn't have if left to my own devices.
Nowadays parents keep their kids up all hours of the night, I really don't get it. I see elementary aged kids out and about (in public) 9, 10, even 11pm.
- watwut 6y agoI had similar experience. I had regular bedtime out of necessity. At the time, I was ambivalent to it and a bit jealous over friends who went to sleep whenever. They regularly went to slep very late due to watching movies out gaming. Now in retrospective, I am glad I learned to cut activities and go to sleep. Paid off in college, actually. And I plan to do the same for my kids.
