[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This discussion of "if my kid can do it than so can yours" is interesting to me. I have three kids, and the first two handled high school early times just fine. One did extremely well on the schedule -- as others have said he just went to bed earlier. He was a strong capable student and an athlete. No problem for him most days to be at school ready to start his day at 7:25. My third child is altogether different. She tries very hard to fall asleep at night but generally cannot do so until at least 11 and sometimes later. She is dead tired most mornings and really doesn't start to be alert and function well until around 8:30 or 9. The best mornings for us are those delayed openings. She's like an entirely different kid when she can sleep until 8. Seeing the contrast in my children has taught me to be less smug.[b] Just because your kid can handle something doesn't mean every child (or even the majority) are benefitted by the early bell times.[/[/b]quote] Well said![/quote]
