With small kids, the problem is usually not you trying to force a schedule on the kid, but the kid forcing a schedule on you.

Yes, of course, their schedule takes priority.
We can't always sleep as much as we want to, even without kids. But I've certainly made it a high priority.
However, this is how I would also raise a child, letting them sleep as much and whenever they want.
When I was a child myself, my parents were in disagreement. My dad's opinion that I should be "broken in" so that I am better able to integrate into society. My mom thought more along the lines of what I describe.
Seeing that my dad had a societal job while my mom raised me, she largely won out.
I think I have her defense and sheltering of me to thank for being blessed with rarely having problems in this department.
