The Cuts Are Coming

So if you didn’t shift, daylight in northern CA would be around 4:30 am in the summer.

It’s not that big a difference

 

[Just A UPS Guy]

The "end daylight savings time" crowd want to end all of that. The want sunlight at 4am, lol.

Never mind, I see the confusion. You have it backwards, they want to have permanent daylight savings, not eliminate it.

Most weeks I work out of a so called “automated hub” we’re still slammed, but they are diverting the work to all the new buildings. Few weeks ago worked out of an archaic smaller building. Completely dead. They’re just diverting the work.

We tried that too in the early 70's. Didn't work. Kiddo's were getting killed going to school in the dark. Now in the 70's, people didn't make a big deal of things, you did as told, went with the flow.
That tells you how bad that experiment played out.

Doesn't affect me either way, I'm just telling you what they're pushing.

So start school later

 

[charm299]

Hey could you please explain to me what liberal policies are hurting the economy?

All of them

So start school later

Makes it harder for a lot of parents with 9-5 jobs, but you’re right we should do that, most kids would absolutely benefit from later school start times

God forbid.... the poor children can't stay up all night playing video games.

What happens when I grow up and have to get a job?

Teens only

Nobody wants to take responsibility, it's always someone else's fault

It’s funny, the people talking about the snowflake generation are the ones constantly whining

There are multiple studies showing adolescents are hard wired to stay up later, and when school starts later, grades improve and even car crashes decline

Facts don’t care about your feelings.


“
Our internal clocks run on a 24.2-hour day, thus we are constantly working to keep our internal clocks on schedule (e.g., with meals and routines). But the strongest cues for our internal clock are light and dark. Evening darkness cues our brain to make melatonin, a naturally produced hormone that prepares our body for sleep. Bright light in the morning cues our brain to stop making melatonin and wake up.

Biology plays an important role in setting teens’ internal clocks. When kids go through puberty, their hormones change, including melatonin. We know that the timing of the melatonin release moves 1 to 2 hours later during puberty. This delay makes it difficult for teens to fall asleep early enough to get the sleep they need before having to wake for an early school start time. In addition, teens are asked to wake up, often get behind the wheel of a car, and be awake enough to learn when they are at the physiological peak of sleepiness.

Because of the science, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended in 2014 that middle and high schools start no earlier than 8:30 a.m. This recommendation has been supported by almost all major medical and psychiatry societies, as well as educational groups that include teachers, caregivers and school nurses. Yet the majority of middle and high schools in the U.S. do not follow this guideline.”

Schools in China are listening to the science and having mandatory sleep mid day during school for children
