[quote=Anonymous]Yeah - given the scenario you outlined (and what you are describing as the requirements of her routine), she needs to be up and in the shower before you leave at 6:30. If it were me - that would be a requirement for her to be out of bed (with strict enforcement, ideally using a mechanism she agrees to) by 6:20. I agree that it would be great if all teens were able to get themselves up and ready independently every morning. But not all teens can, and it's our role as parents to help them build routines for success. And an 8 am bus for a 9 am start is really not that early, not in the scheme of what lots of teens in this area are dealing with.[/quote]
