Remember that you not only need your sleep and need to have your rest to ensure that you can feel your best throughout the day, but you also deserve that time to relax and enjoy yourself! If you wake up unrested, your entire day (and those around you) can suffer.
Deciding against co-sleeping can also help you create a good habit for your children to get used to sleeping in their own beds and rooms as they grow. This is important especially when you are away from your children or come home late from work.
For busy parents, nighttime may be their only time to reconnect with each other in both a physical, emotional, and intimate way. This is an important time for parents to work on their relationship, too. Having a child in your bed can drastically impact this bonding time.
Growing children need more sleep than adults. Thus, they may be ready to go to bed at 7:30, but you are just now getting your night started. Co-sleeping makes it incredibly difficult if you have a variety of bedtimes to accommodate.
