Is it just me?

Question

If your children (10, 14 & 15) have problems falling asleep at night (not being able to fall asleep until 1-2 am) why would you let them take naps when they come home from school?

How does that make sense? Or is it just me?

Answer

It depends on the reason. I don't have older kids so idk if this principle applies but I know if my toddler doesn't nap n she's overtired, she has trouble sleeping. But it can also depend on other factors so you do what's best for them and try different things whether it's less sugary foods, more exercise or limiting naps to 30mins or whatever interval works better

Answer

Maybe make them have an earlier bed time? Take away all electronics before bed or that are in their rooms. Kids that age still need 9-10 hrs of sleep. It's a habit they need to work on breaking.

Answer

At that age I'd try not to let them nap, it could be hindering their ability to fall asleep at night, especially the 15 year old.
