Are the Blue Jays worth staying up for? That's a question parents are asking themselves | CBC News
""I am a big Blue Jays fan and turning my kids into them, too, is my mission," said Jangda, who was anticipating another late school night for Thursday's game, and a more manageable Friday night game as the series continued from Seattle's T-Mobile Park."
""Turns out my kids are definitely showing TIRED," Jangda said by text in a 7 p.m. update, about an hour-and-a-half before Game 4's first pitch."
""So I'm going out to a bar to watch with friends tonight, and making them go to bed at 8 like usual. Without me at home watching, they won't be as sucked in.""
A Blue Jays fan stayed up late with her two young children to watch playoff games, causing a late school morning and tired kids. The parent allowed the boys to watch until the fifth inning, extending their usual bedtime by about an hour to see a George Springer home run. Multiple late nights earlier in the series left the children sluggish. By Thursday evening the parent noted the children were visibly tired and chose to watch the next game away from home while enforcing the usual 8 p.m. bedtime. Other parents and a teacher say families need to be prepared to adjust routines during playoffs.
