The first thing to understand is that teen boys and girls are in a growing process and their brain is in a developing stage, so they need more sleep than adults. Also, the rhythm of sleep and waking up is different from that of adults, and melatonin release is slow, so it takes a long time to get to sleep at night, late to sleep, and it also takes time to get up in the morning. In addition, social networking sites, online chats, browsing, etc. affect the students as well as the pressure of study. On the other hand, parents tend to have less control over their children's bedtime.
As a result of experts reevaluating the results of 864 studies of children's sleeping time and health, children aged 13-18 years sleep 8-10 hours on a 24-hour basis to be fully healthy It is shown that you need it. However, so far research of, 53% of the children of the day there is a school that does not take only less than 8 hours sleep we've found .

On the other hand, children's stress response system is mature and responds to many stresses. A study in 2016 says that less than 8 hours of sleep increases the risk of suicide, overweight, risk of self-harm, distraction and poor performance. On the other hand, Hall points out that sleeping for more than 9 hours has been shown to be associated with higher life satisfaction, fewer health problems, and better family relationships for teenage children .
