It’s a good time to start going to sleep an extra 15 min earlier each night, since daylight saving time starts on Sunday. Tell Congress to stop the madness. Permanent standard time is best for health and safety. #DitchDST Save Standard Time Start School Later, Inc. Healthy Hours American Academy of Sleep Medicine

kids need more sleep than adults. A rule of thumb is “10 at 10”: at age 10, they need about 10 hours nightly, with younger kids needing even more. Most adults, though, can get by with an average of 7-9h. @choosesleep American Academy of Sleep Medicine Penn Sleep Medicine #sleeppeeps

teens w/early school starts:
🚫 can’t function @ their best
🚫 fall asleep @ school
🚫 don’t “get used to” insufficient sleep; instead, they carry sleep debt
AND
