    They would just stay up later if they knew they could sleep in. It won’t fix that.

    Also, If we are going to change it, we need to just shift everyones starting time back an hour so their parents can still take them to school before work. Or possibly drop some time off the workday.

    • My response was also along the lines of “just go to sleep earlier”. Then I yelled at some kids to get off my lawn before complaining about prune prices.

      Jokes aside, I remembered that I’m not really a kid anymore, that I used to be sleepy during the day as well, and that I still couldn’t fall asleep before midnight.

      I don’t have a viable solution for this problem. Going to bed earlier doesn’t seem feasible. The only thing I can come up with rhymes with amphetamine.

      A) Not infinitely

      B) Not all of them

      C) That doesn’t change the actual data we have that says later start times are better

      we need to just shift everyones starting time back an hour so their parents can still take them to school before work.

      Or… we could stop designing our cities so that that’s necessary?
