Once I moved out to live alone, I spent many many (7 years, to be precise) struggling to develop the necessary discipline when it comes to sleep hours. Not to mention I had severe depression, and many professional setbacks, among other things, most of them directly related to this precise fact. | |

Having a hard rule of "go to bed at X pm or else" doesn't teach her how to regulate her own bedtime, or how to choose a good bedtime, or the consequences of going to bed late, or anything like that. These are skills she should be learning, and limiting activity later in the evening aids this much better than a hard rule. | |
