summer curfews

Hi, I haven't posted in awhile, just been lurking, but since I'm up waiting on DD 16 to come in I thought I'd see what others do about curfews in the summer. Hubby and I are getting pretty exhausted. I can't go to bed at night till I know everyone is in so here we are waiting up till midnight on alot of weeknights and of course the kids all sleep in till noon. I, on the other hand am up by seven each morning, so after awhile it wears on you. Even if she doesn't go out, it seems like there are kids over here or things are just going on in the house like watching movies, computer use, talking on the phone, etc. What do you do at your house with teenagers in the summer except get happy when its time for school to start again. I also have a 20 yr old at home from college in the summer who doesn't go out everynight but when she does it is often very late, like twoish when she comes in.....I guess these kids just don't realize that parents live in the real world and have to keep different hours..... UGH

Hi. I've been wondering about this recently, too. My DD will be 17 in a few weeks and all of her friends are already 17 and driving. The summer is an endless party for all of them, it seems. I like some of the responses where there are different curfews for weekdays vs. weekends. I work from home, but my husband has to get up every morning and I have a younger DD. I think I will institute weekday/weekend curfews too. I am tired of going out at midnight to pick her up!!
