Should You Allow Your Child to Stay Up Late on Weekends: Experts Opinion
Many children ask their parents for "leniency" during the weekends.
If there are no plans, the children ask to stay up late.
Many parents are willing to accommodate this issue.
Should you allow children to stay up late on weekends?
Experts agree that this should not be allowed to happen. Even if you have no special plans for the next day, it is better for your child to go to bed at the usual time.
An error of an hour or an hour and a half can be allowed, but no more.
The point is that children need to have a routine that is followed on a regular basis. This helps them grow up responsible and disciplined.
If you allow any slack, all your efforts will come to nothing.
It is also worth remembering that "nighttime gatherings" are harmful for children's bodies, since their bodies need quality rest and restoration of strength.
Therefore, try to create a pleasant and relaxing environment at home a couple of hours before going to bed, ask your child to put away the phone and turn off the computer.
