Answer 5

I am 13, and although I sometimes feel like staying up till 1 in the morning, (I have tried) it backfires on me in the morning, when I am too tired to even get out of bed. I'd say 9:30-10 pm is okay, because most shows I like to watch end about 9, and I like to read for at least 20 mins before bed. Hope this helps!

Answer 6

10p.m.

Answer 7

a good bedtime is 10 pm... he gets a good nite sleep and will be easier to get up...

Answer 8

5am

Answer 9

If he needs to up by 8AM, then 10:30 would be decent.  Kids that age typically need about 9 hours of sleep

Answer 10

Girliest girlie obviously doesn't know any teenagers.

I would love to see a 13 year old willingly go to bed at 7pm.

Answer 11

10

anything less would seem ridicules from there point of view.

Answer 12

well, it depends.

i am a 13yr old too and i dont like being sent up to bed.

most teenagers plan their tv veiwing times and most of the shows that teenagers watch are after 7:30.

i think you should ask your child to tell you all the shows they want to watch and create a responsible time for them.

just remember: if your child/ren go up at 8, it takes them 5 minutes to brush their teeth and 5 mins to change. if they are going to read or do something else before they sleep then all that will take about half an hour. i think 9:30-10 would be reasonable.

HOPE THIS HELPS.  :-)

Around about 10ish or 11 if they are getting up early enough in the mornings.

Answer 15

11 pm

Answer 16

I do believe my parents used to tell me to shut up and go to bed around 11pm when i was 13. Seemed to work well enough considering i was never late for school :)
