2/3 of Teens leave their electronics on at night. This may not seem very important but kids who use electronic close to bedtime are 200% more likely to
be excessively sleepy during the day--leading to poor grades, mood swings, and
anxiety.
The RULE in my house is that they need to shut their
electronics (phone, Kindle, Computer, DS), whatever they are on down an
hour prior to bedtime.
Goddess and Handsome go to bed at 9 which means that the
electronics are off at 8. It isn't something they like but the rule is
followed every school night.
Set a curfew! Tell them they can read quietly, listen to music or even watch something together as a family. Eventually they will learn this is the way it is going to be!
