What time should a 12 year old go to bed?

Recommended Bedtimes for Different Age Groups

For children aged 3 to 5 years, bedtime should ideally be between 7:00 and 8:00 PM. Those in the 6 to 12 year range should aim to sleep between 7:30 and 8:30 PM. As for teenagers aged 13 to 18, it is generally recommended they go to bed around 10:00 PM.
