Should be an interesting day...
My youngest son thinks he should be able to stay up as late as he wants. He's in the "treat me like an adult.. hey, wait, I don't want responsibility" phase.
Because of his Klinefelter syndrome, he takes medicine at night to help him sleep. The stubborn little (bleep) is actually forcing himself to stay awake over two hours after taking his medicine. So every day for the past week, he's been cranky and irritable, and so have the rest of us. Unfortunately I have that mom thing where I can't go to sleep until he does. So we've all been up until about 1 in the morning each night.
Our whole family requires a lot of sleep. I'm talking at least 10 hours or I feel like crap. We normally go to bed around 10.
Last night he was up until after 1 a.m. again, so today he learns a lesson about consequences. I'm not going to wake him up. I hope he sleeps until 4 in the afternoon. He hates sleeping late (insert evil laugh here).
The best part? I get a whole day without a teenager!
