[quote=Anonymous]It's not healthy at ANY AGE. Every age group needs full, good quality sleep. Long-term sleep deprivation is a significant contributor to dementia and cardiovascular risks. Adolescents' body clocks shift to later sleep times naturally, so it's not like a teen getting up at 4 is better than a child waking up at 4. I have one kid who has always been a late riser (he has borderline sleep apnea that is not treatable with a cpap), and one kid who has always been an early riser... but not 4:30am. More like 5:30. I am not damaging either of them by having that sort of schedule. Honestly, I think it's tantamount to child abuse, even if the child doesn't realize it and wants to swim at that time in the morning.
