I suppose you can full dystopia it, go the other way, make them need 12-16 hours a sleep a day whilst you only need 4 ;)
- XorNot 2y agoI mean I also don't give my son caffeine (because he's 2) so this seems like a reasonable assumption. Teenagers stay up too late anyway so I'd say this sort of thing would be a good way to hopefully reduce the effects of sleep deprivation.
- rekado 2y agoTeenagers have to get up too early. Teenagers experience a shift in their circadian rhythm and also require more sleep than before puberty. School schedules do not account for this shift.
- TeMPOraL 2y agoNot treating the children will only level the playing field. My two daughters, 5yo and 3.5yo, both sleep from "as late as they can get away with" to "about an hour earlier than parents would like to wake up". Also, whoever came up with the idea of nap hour in kindergartens has a special circle of hell reserved for them.
