BBC NEWS | England | Tyne | Head urges lie-ins for teenagers

I'm not sure whether this is a common sense idea that will benefit the learning of teenagers or a pandering to their desire to stay up late and get up late which won't serve them well for "the real world". As a teenager I often burned the midnight oil. But in adulthood, breaking this habit brought me more energy. My aim now is always to go to bed before I am (yawning) tired. That way I feel refreshed when I wake. Well, I do on the occasions the kids don't keep waking me inbetween times, but that's a different story.
