Bettina: At nine o'clock. How about yous?

Asami: My daughter goes to bed at nine thirty.

Jessica: I want my son to go to bed at nine. But he usually stays up untill ten or ten thirty.

Bettina: Staying up late is OK sometimes, but I think getting enough sleep is important for kids' health.

Asami: I feel the same way. Good sleep is also important for their mental health.　（いい睡眠は心の健康にも重要なのよ）
