Is your kid getting enough sleep?

A recent poll conducted by the National Sleep Foundation found that most kids today are falling behind in their sleep. Although kids and teens should be getting 9 hours of sleep, the poll found that most teens were averaging only 6.9 hours of sleep on school nights! Since most kids who get A’s and B’s get adequate sleep, parents should be paying closer attention to what their kids are doing at night.
