Damn, I must be a horrible parent. My son is 13 and my daughter will be 12 in Jan, and I let them stay out until 9pm. No one that age had to be in at 8, even in my day.


In my day you had to be in before the street lights were on. But that was the sixties.

Sounds terribly capricious. I'd hate to be a kid in a Northern latitude with a rule like that. You'd be out late all Summer, and have absolutely no time to play at all in the winter. My kids have a 9pm curfew regardless of the season.
