Yes!
How about they just get their butts to bed earlier?!?!
I thought biological sleep rhythms were a result of sun rise, sun set not the age of the person. If you go to bed early, getting up early and staying awake should not be a problem.
I was raised on a dairy farm, we were in bed by 8 and up at 4:30 or so and I never had a problem with falling asleep during school.
Most teens today stay up all hours of the night watching TV, texting and surfing the web, no wonder they fall asleep during school. If they change the hours of school to start later the kids will just stay up later.
Your comment suggests that school is a good thing!
I am in favor of anything that gets kids to school later, or out of it earlier. Ideally, time in school can be reduced to zero. School is among the longest-running, most successful hoaxes in human history. It ranks up there with Islam, Social Security, and Communism.
Well, between 7 and 7:30 according to the article is waaayy too early.
We always started a little after 8:00 in the morning.
Some of the drugs that kids take interfere with their sleep. They really can't be expected to go to sleep until they start to come down.
