An intimate glimpse inside a silent epidemic harming teens and how parents can help them reclaim the restorative power of sleep. If you could protect your teen from unnecessary anxiety, depression, and chronic stress while fostering happiness and well-being, wouldn’t you? The authors of a classic guide on healthy sleep habits reveal a significant threat to teenagers: sleep deprivation. Teens are caught in a perfect storm of omnipresent screens, academic overload, night owl biology, and early school start times, leading to a constant state of sleep debt and "social jet lag" as they navigate adolescence. Drawing on the latest scientific research, the authors explain that many teens need more sleep than their younger siblings but are getting drastically less. This essential book helps foster self-motivation for better sleep, alter family practices around phones and screen time, and create smart sleep habits that align with teens' natural tendencies. It also lays out steps for sleep-friendly schools and promotes systemic changes to ensure teens get the rest they need. Packed with clear, actionable advice for parents, it serves as an eye-opening call to action for teachers, principals, colleges, coaches, and policymakers.
