what you do when your teens keep on giggling even at the middle of the night?

When I was a teen ager and I have a conversation with my friends and cousins, we keep on laughing.. Even nonsense thing, when one start laughing we all laugh as if everything we talk about is funny. Even in the middle of the night and our parents would tell us to stop but we still whisper and giggle. Now that I am older, when I hear teens in our house giggling in the middle of the night, I am upset because it disturbed my sleep. Did you experience same thing? what did you do to stop them?

lols. One of my very elderly relative, now aged about 94, a female.. who was born into a very orthodox, traditional family, and got married at 11 years, to yet another TRADITIONAL family, told me very recently about her childhood days.. her cousins, and all the fun of her CHILDHOOD days. (She could not consider her teenage, because, she was a mother by her teenage) ... and, it is similar to what you wrote, all the fun, the gossiping, the giggles, the teases, and the shouts from ELDERS in the middle of the night, .. ------------ i HAVE not yet experienced

well, as i said, it was all some 80 years before. so... being a mother at her teenage did not constrain her in those days, I believe. ;D

I would agree that it would disturb your sleep. You may like to talk it out with them and remind them regularly. It's nothing new to me because I was like that growing up. With a brother to share we always ended up giggling even in the middle of the night as we shared the same room. Our parents had to reminding us. These are some things we finally outgrow.

Yeah, we can talk to them but still the same, they can't control their giggles when they were together. Maybe the best thing is to separate them when they sleep. hehehe

My sister and I used to do that all the time, we shared a room and we'd be up late laughing and giggling, everything was funny to us. My grandpa would holler at us to be quiet and go bed, we'd get quiet for a little bit, then here we'd go again giggling. Its funny, cause now whenever the nephews come over, they like to watch tv real late and we can hear it from our bedroom or we'll hear them talking and laughing, and I'm the one hollering now for them to be quiet. I just set the timer on the tv, and when it goes off they're usually already asleep.
