  7. Problems • Circadian rhythms clash with society’s demands • People used to think teens didn’t need as much sleep, but now research has shown otherwise • Homework and other activities keep teens up late

  8. Teens • Timing of circadian rhythms changes as puberty hits • Puberty resets the biological clocks & teens want to sleep later • Research shows teens need an average of 9 hours and 20 minutes of sleep http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/innovation/tdc-publication-tp13959e-13959e-120.htm
