It's great that you got Kiel and Kaitie on such a strict sleeping schedule from such a young age. I was never able to follow normal sleep patterns, but I don't think that's my parents' fault. For every time they put me to bed, I could find a reason I needed to be up, and it never stopped. Everyone tells me that the baby is going to be the sleep regulator I've been searching for my whole life:-) MusEditions: Thanks for all the kind words. You're right about the need for teens to get more sleep than us adults. The author of the article, Po Bronson, has a blog which discusses this point.

Their brains and bodies are developing at such a rapid rate. Having once been a teenager :) I remember sleeping a lot, but being called "lazy" by the parental units. Needless to say, this did not help me. Good and useful post, and I like your site change--hadn't been by for a while!
