An intimate glimpse inside a silent epidemic that is harming teens,
and a pathway for parents to help them reclaim the restorative
power of sleep. If you could protect your child from unnecessary
anxiety, depression, and chronic stress, and foster a greater sense
of happiness and well-being in their lives, wouldn't you? In this
book, the authors of The Happy Sleeper, the classic book on helping
babies and young children develop healthy sleep habits, uncover one
of the greatest threats to our teenagers' physical and mental
health: sleep deprivation. Caught in a perfect storm of omnipresent
screens, academic overload, and unnecessarily early school-start
times, our children are operating in a constant state of sleep debt
while struggling to meet the demands of adolescence. In this
essential book, Heather Turgeon and Julie Wright draw on the latest
scientific research to reveal that today's teenagers are, in fact,
the most sleep-deprived population in human history. In fact, at a
critical phase of development, many teens need more sleep than
their younger siblings - but they're getting drastically less.
Generation Sleepless guides families in building healthy habits
around sleep by: * establishing family agreements around sleep
habits; * altering family practices around phones, social media,
and screen time; * regaining overall equilibrium in the home; and *
remaking bedtime routines Packed with years of research and
in-depth reporting, Generation Sleepless is a wake-up call for
parents that equips them with the right tools to start a family
conversation about sleep and to ultimately regain connection with
their tweens and teens.
