It is proven unhealthy for teenagers to get up too early, which will result in lack of sleep, am I right?

So my thinking is thats it is natural for teenagers to sleep in and stay up late so when forced to get up for high school at times like 6:00(like i have too) or 6:30 its unhealthy, and can even result in larger problems. Is this true?


I really want to know I don't just want your opinion either!


Thanks!It is proven unhealthy for teenagers to get up too early, which will result in lack of sleep, am I right?
No, you have it backward! You need to get to bed early enough at night so that when you have to get up in the morning, you will get in at least 8 hours of sleep! However, you are right in that if you don't get enough sleep, it's definitely not good for you. You just need to adjust the time you go to bed at night. Sounds like you are trying to find an excuse for sleeping in!!! :-)It is proven unhealthy for teenagers to get up too early, which will result in lack of sleep, am I right?
well the idea of that is that by getting up earlier you will get tired sooner and be going to bed at 10pm everynight, but society tells teenagers that staying up late is the norm (i.e. late night tv and 12 am movie showtimes, midnight bowling ect). Youll be fine though. i went 4 years with only sleeping about 6 hours a night and im the guy who if left alone will sleep for 12-13 hours. i actually feel better when i was on that schedule
Most of it is going to bed to late. No teenager i know wants to miss out on the evening, heck neither do i but we should plan our sleep. If have to get up at 6 am then i should be in bed for 9:30 pm the night before. This gives me time to settle and fall asleep.


Can having less sleep cause larger problems, well that's all in who you look at it. Health can be compromised through a lower immune system so you can get sick more often. fatigue can cause more accidents and less attention in school.


is a teenager going to listen to any of this...... No, we all know that they have to live it to get it.
Actually it is true that teenagers need more sleep than they did when they were younger. Teenagers require at least 9-10 hours of sleep in general. If you have to get up early for school, then you need to go to bed at least 10 hours before you need to get up so that you will get enough sleep. Because you have to get up at 6 AM, that means you would have to go to bed by 8 PM. Because this is a ridiculously early time, many high schools have opted to have classes a little later in the day.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA thats good. Thats a new one! Getting up early is the best thing for you to do, you'll get a head start on the day. Get things done, you know-go to class...


Getting up early is actually good for you and no,
