I've seen a lot of research (such as [1]) showing that kids waking up early is actually detrimental to them. I feel the causality goes in pretty much the reverse direction that you're implying: the children are forced to get up early to go to school because their parents need to be free of them early and their parents need to be free of them early because they are forced to be at work early.

- semireg 4y agoDefine: kid. Parent wrote “having kids” and take this from a father of a 5 and 2 year old it’s: “daddy cheezy eggz!!!” at 530am no matter what.
- culopatin 4y agoI read this three times and I still don’t know what your comment was supposed to say or mean.
- dabbledash 4y agoI think they mean: the studies showing bad outcomes from waking up 'kids' early are specifically about teenagers. Little kids get up very early, and the schedules of parents have to account for this.
- quantified 4y agoChildren wake up early and you need to wake up with them, feed them nurture them. They'll take you out of your sleep. Actually waking up is on you.
- AndrewDucker 4y agoTake it from the father of a 4 year old and a 2 year old, my kids aren't awake until after 8am. Because, it turns out, children are like other people and vary!
- pleb_nz 4y agoI had a quick skim and I couldn't see anything about what is defined as early and at what age is something early?
- TapWaterBandit 4y agoThat is talking about adolescents (10-19) not kids. I agree that teenagers should be able to start school later but kids are definitely early birds.
- soco 4y agoAlso because every book insists tucking your kids in at 8pm.
