Ideally I would love them to all be in bed by 7.30, but they don't get home from school till 4.30, so once they have a bit of a play, do homework and then bathed and fed, it takes us up to 8pm some nights - even 8.30 at times. Then they are up at 6.45 on weekdays for school. They seem to cope with it *OK*, but I make them catch up on sleep over the weekend if they need to. I think it's really unfair on the little boy next door to be regularly up so late though - I bet his teacher would really appreciate it if he got a decent nights sleep from time to time as much as he would.
