its not FAIR!
im 13 and in 7th grade and i have a bedtime of 9:30.. and it's really not fair because my 2 younger bros that are 7 and 9 both go to bed at 9! when i was 7 and 9 i had a bedtime of 8! i talked to my parents of letting me stay up till 10 but they dont listen! what can i do? (they wont listen if i talk to them again)

What I did to negotiate a later bedtime is to offer to go to bed at the set time, but be allowed to read until half an hour later.
I know it's unfair, but it's the price you pay for being the oldest... I know, because I got the same treatment.

this might seem un fair.
but just like everyone else.
its good that your parents have your bedtime at 930.
so just be thankful

I agree with the first person, But I will add a little more.
My bedtime is 10, but I want to get up at 6, which is 8 hours, which is what people my age, and yours need.
My alarm goes off at 6, but I sleep till 6:30, and I value that half hour so much, because I feel without it, I wouldn't be awake the next day.
Value that extra 30 minutes, it might not be fair, but believe me, VALUE IT!!

getting not enough sleep is bad. and getting too much sleep is just as bad. tell your parents that you think you're getting a little too much sleep and ask if you can stay up a little longer. yeah usually the older sibling has to suffer and the younger ones get it a little easier, but like the person below me said, enjoy it while you can! :]

trust me...take advantage of the extra sleep. when you're older you'll be willing to pay good money to go to bed at 9.30.
