In high school, there were a few months where I managed to arrange my sleeping schedule so I slept from when when I got home from school to about 11pm-1am. It worked really well, but my mom didn't like it.
- Qz 17y agoMy parents tried the iron fist approach: i had to wake up by a certain time on saturdays and sundays or they would ban me from using the computer. If I missed the bus for sleeping too late, no computer. Needless to say that this didn't work -- I just stayed up until they were asleep and used the computer then. The salient feature of my adolescence was a grueling and protracted war with my parents over school performance vs. computer usage/sleep habits. Makes me wonder how things would have turned out if I'd learned about DSPS when I was maybe 14 or something.
