CDC and other sources advocate for children to have sufficient sleep?
But what is the reality?
BTW .. Look at the wide variation.

And .. This is very important.... Ask your doctor about disordered sleep "Regularly sleeping fewer than the number of recommended hours is associated with attention, behavior, and learning problems. Insufficient sleep also increases the risk of accidents, injuries, hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and depression. Insufficient sleep in teenagers is associated with increased risk of self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and suicide attempts." http://jcsm.aasm.org/ViewAbstract.aspx?pid=30652
