That's really odd.

Maybe you should praise them a couple of times for going to bed and like with RL kids, settle into a routine. I play my families from my time morning to about 10, 11-ish before they start getting tired or exhausted.
After that I shut down the game and by the next morning they'll fully (or almost fully) refreshed.
