Ahh this reminds me of an issue we had a few weeks back with gavins daughter. She just turned 13 and is in the 'I know everything' stage. She decided that she was now too old for a bedtime and that she should now be treat like an adult so we said fair enough, lets do it your way. So she stayed up til 2am on her bloody ipod thing. Alls fine. Next morning, we woke her up at 9 and she went MENTAL. Turned out she wanted to be treat as an adult only for bedtime...but the next day we should have let her sleep til 4pm. Nope nope nope. She now accepts that being an adult is not all its cracked up to be Though we do let her set her own bedtime as such now, she knows that if she goes later, she will be tired the next day.
