[quote=Anonymous]I had a similar issue as a teenager and my 16 yo struggles with it too. She has sleep apnea (only partially corrected) and will sleep through a blaring alarm. If a kid is otherwise responsible in general I’d try to not get too mad about this, as it’s mostly a physical issue. Get rid of the 530 alarm. Frankly I’d get rid of the 6 too and get her up and out of bed into the shower at 620/630 right before you leave. The snooze cycle makes it harder to get up. Do you have any older neighborhood teens who drive? Maybe you can get a few on the roster willing to pick her up for gas money and make her responsible for that cost. Ask in your neighborhood group. My daughter is a driver and takes her sister plus another friend so on rare days I have to leave early her sister makes sure she’s up. [/quote]
