I've always had a curfew on me, so when I was younger I could never stay up longer than 10:00. Since like late 6th grade to 7th grade, I was allowed to stay up over 10:00. On weekends, rarely, am I allowed to stay up past 12:00.
Yes, I know I live in a sheltered world.

I was probably about 8-9 when I started staying up late. I was obbsesed with video games and couldn't stand it when I couldn't beat a game in one night.

I started probably around 15. It's all thanks to technology. xD

when i was little i had a curfew too! 8:00pm i has to be in bed -in 3rd grade, however i'd routinely stay up to 12 in the morning with insomnia or reading. with a good (long) book I'd stay up till three sometimes. basically I held to that pattern since then except my 'bed time' moved to ten then 11 at night. last year i was staying up to 4 every night, 6 or 7 was my late nights. now my schedule has regulated itself so I go to bed at midnight or 1 every night. That's probably my biggest accomplishment all year. 😀

I have noooo idea. 🤣
I think I had a bedtime through elementary school (6th grade), don't remember much about Jr. High (this is a GOOD thing, btw). By high school the rule was that I could stay up as late as I wanted, as long as I'd get myself up & ready in time to catch the bus for school, and as a consequence I stayed up late almost every night and got to be quite good at getting ready for school in 10 minutes or less. 😃
My boys are 12 (6th grade) and they have a flexible bedtime of 8:30 - that's the time I aim to have them in bed, but they can stay up & read, talk, etc. as late as they want as long as they're in their beds. Usually they're out by 9:00, but now & then they'll stay up to midnight or later. Sometimes they'll watch a tv show from 8:00-9:00, but then I usually have to wake them up to get them into bed. And...they wake up on their own EVERY day at 6:30-7:00 am or even earlier - how someone with my sleep patterns ended up with kids with their sleep patterns is a mystery to me! 😕

Any who I started staying up late in 8th grade when I began my obsession with reading. I occasionally got caught by my parents up reading at 3 or 4 AM, needless to say after the first few times I got very good at hearing them sneak up the stairs.

I don't really remember, probably in high school on Fridays and Saturdays. one time stands out really well though.... I had to be around 16 and it must have been either been a holiday or vacation but anyway I stayed up for like 24 hours. I was proud of myself (lol) then I dropped at like 8 or 9 in the morning... 🤣
ever since I was in college, I started going to sleep later if I didn't have class early in the morning. like right now its 5:13 am and I'm just about to go to sleep.
I stayed up late when I got hooked on WoW.
Yes, it's so sad and Shamefull. T_T;

The day I discovered Karol May...sigh I was like 6 or 7 yo, so it was a loong time ago.
After that, I found Roger Lancelyn Green and his books...
It made me master "home stealth" 🤣
I think the lack of sleep is permanent in my case 🤣
