Children can still wake up early. They're just not forced to PERFORM well early. You have to understand that not everyone does well in the morning. It's completely unfair to expect everyone to get up and be functioning at the same level in the early morning. That's going to advantage some, and disadvantage others. That's what this is about. Nothing stops the early bird from getting up early and doing all the things you ascribe to.

It’s not about fairness. Why is everything about ‘fairness’? It’s not a biological impediment. Getting up early is not a super power nor is childhood a disability. Getting up early and getting an early start gives you a buffer towards the end of the day. If you start late and run out of time, the whole rest of the day will be derailed. Anyways..just my 2c. I am not here to argue because I have no dog in this fight.

  You assume similar sleep requirements in children and adults.

    i think this new 'ban' is also based on a lot of assumptions. california is continuing to experience what george carlin called a 'child fetish'.

  > It’s not about fairness. Why is everything about ‘fairness’? Is that not a worthy ideal to strive for, as a community? Wouldn't you prefer a world where we all have equal opportunity? Where, it comes down to who wants it more, not who had the best start? ... The rest of what you have to say is clear evidence that you've always been naturally a morning person. You don't understand what it's like to perform at 50% of your ability just because you're forced to be awake at that hour. I'd personally love to see all these pro-morning people espouse the non-biological bull rhetoric, when they're asked to stay up until 4am. Lets see you perform your best, passing tests, focussing in class, etc, at 2am in the morning.
