Ditto on doing your best to help them sleep. DS6 regularly goes to bed after midnight, but this isn't really because he needs less sleep so much as it is his not wanting to sleep. He's bleary-eyed on most school mornings. I don't know if he's a night person or sundowner type (I stay up awfully late too and have gone through sundowner periods), but I suspect it's just wanting to keep going. We typically let him stay up as late as he wants despite some misgivings at times.
