We've always been pretty strict with Charlie's schedule. He's usually asleep by 7:30 every night. As he gets older, he can stay awake an extra hour or two without getting too tired.

I went to a Christmas party tonight, but didn't bring Charlie since it went on past his bedtime. All of my friends' kids have bedtimes that are much later than Charlie's, and they all brought their kids.

But am I too much of a stickler? Do you let your LO miss naps and bedtime when attending events?
