[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That was my life in high school. Class from 8.00 to 3.15. mandatory sports four days a week till 4.45. Other extra currics at night and on weekends. Plus five hours of homework a night. Averaged five or six hours of sleep a night, which is not healthy for a teen. I worked harder my junior year in high school than any year since. Even without sports and extra currics, homework plus school is over a twelve hour day. It is absurd. Make sure she gets at least 7.5 hours a night of sleep. Insist on it. Encourage her to limit her extra currics.[/quote] I should add, I went to a top five college and it was like a vacation after high school! All my friends felt the same way.[/quote] Which raises the question: why are we so hellbent on making high school kids miserable?[/quote]
