A scientific look at the problem of sleep deprivation in adolescence: why modern teenagers sleep less than previous generations of young people, and what parents can do to help their child establish healthy sleep habits.
Every loving parent wants to protect their child from anxiety, depression, and chronic stress. In the modern world, one of the primary (yet often overlooked) threats to the physical and mental health of growing children is a lack of sleep.
Our children are severely overloaded, primarily due to intense academic schedules and the need to meet the high expectations of relatives and teachers. The problem is that due to sleep deprivation, they do not have time to recover and gain the strength so necessary for successful growth and development.
Adolescence is an extremely important and challenging period, and teenagers need much more sleep than their younger siblings, but, alas, they are often the ones who get the least of it.
This book contains tools and techniques that will help parents establish healthy sleep habits for their growing children (and themselves), thereby helping their teenagers become calmer and happier.
