[quote=Anonymous]I place a huge premium on sleep in my house. My kids are almost never sick. For my kid that turns 14 in September, we aim for 9pm during the school year. Depending on practice schedule, it may be 9:30pm. He needs a lot of sleep, will get up at 7am for 8th grade. He is just entering a growth spurt---just started eating and sleeping more. I want to capitalize on this and let him get as much rest as possible. When he enters HS and gets older, there will be more time to regulate on his own. My kids have always seen how athletic performance suffers without adequate sleep the night before. My 12-year old is an a-hole (like me) if he doesn't get enough sleep. Other kids tolerate it better, mine have never done well without a consistent sleep schedule.[/quote]
