Does your teen have one? How old is your teen and when is their curfew?
My teen is 18 now, still in High school. She does have a curfew which is 11pm on week ends, 10pm weeknights unless it's something special. That's always been her curfew since she started dating at 16. Late enough for her to have a good time, early enough for us to have time to talk about her evening. She tells me everything ... she just can't help herself LOL!
Youngest at home is 15, she doesn't go out on her own like that since nobody in her group drives on their own. We also live in a semi-rural area so she can't really hang out either. Most of her entertainment involves transportation by me or another parent. When it comes up, she probably will not be allowed to go out during the week, except in rare instances.
But for her older sibs, they had to be in by 9pm during the week and midnight on weekends. That was when they were HS seniors and we lived in an urban area.
I'm keeping it real and simple. ![]()
My dd is 16. Her curfew on the week nights is 9pm on the weekends it is 11.
until they left for college curfew was 11pm.If there was a special occasion then they could be out later.That was weekends.Week night 9pm.
Surround yourself with people that add to your life not subtract from it.
When my daughter was still in high school, her curfew for weeknights were by 9 or 10pm and weekends were by 11 or 11:30 depending on the situation an d where she was going. Of course, she has left for college now but when she comes home on an occasional weekend. Her curfew is midnight. We are always up late on the weekend and would like a chance to talk about her night. She can't help herself, anyway. She's such a bubbly person.
My son is 15 and really doesn't go out much, but his curfew is 9 or 10pm, same as for his older sister. And, youngest daughter is 13 and she is not allowed out on her own. She has a while before we allow this b/c she is our "problem" child but is slowly improving!! Thank goodness!!
I have three teens, ages 19,18 &15.. We do not have a set curfew. They need permission to go anywhere, and we set the time for them to be home, based on each situation. Where they are going and who they will be with? They all are very active in school sports and church activities so quite often they are home after 10pm on weeks nights. The oldest lives on campus, so when he is home on weekends or breaks, I just want to know where he will be, who he will be with and what time I can expect him home... He doesn't need permission, I just like a guideline so I was not worrying..
Oldest is 18, her curfew is 2:30 and she really only goes out during the weekend. She does adult ed in the afternoon. We have a rule that she is going to be late or stay over then she is requiredto call. If she forgets her key and she's late, then she doesn't come in. Its something to enforce curfew and let her that i am serious. Son who is 17 is at 12, he doesn't go anywhere unless its with his sister who is 18. 14 year old daughter doesn't go anywhere.
