Nope. Go to Walmart and get her a clock radio with an alarm for her room, and park all of her screens in shared family space after bedtime. Let her stay up for awhile with an actual fiction book and a bedside lamp.

It’s not just to keep her safe from the other people who might be online after bedtime. She still needs 9–10 hours’ sleep each night to function during the day, and screens before sleep aren’t good for sleep, especially for pre-teens’ and teeenagers’ brains.

Let her have her phone back in the morning after she’s done her morning personal hygiene routine, eaten breakfast, made her bed (and/or done her other morning chores), gotten dressed appropriately. and gotten her backpack in order to go to school.

You’ll be helping her build good habits that will, hopefully, get her through middle and high school with a level head on her shoulders. Oh, yes, you will be the meanest parent ever. I also had the meanest parents. We’re pushing 60, and my friends still talk about how I wasn’t available to get into the biggest trouble with them.
