I am a hypocrite. The most I can get my two to sleep is eight hours per night. Weekends they might get 12 hours each night. Thomas Edison pushed society beyond our evolutionary stage.

If they want teenagers to actually get enough sleep, then they need to stop having 6:30AM Calculus classes. It just wasn't realistic for me to do everything I needed to do in the day and then sleep 10 hours. It doesn't mean I didn't have sleep apnea though.
Last fall, Duke University announced that no classes would begin before 9:00 a.m. in order to accommodate the circadian cycle of the youthful students. Having once taught 8:00 a.m. classes, I am all for this.
