Sleepy Teens: So Why Do They Sleep So Much?

It might not change the start of the school day, but it might make you let them sleep in instead of doing chores on Saturdays.

The Parent Education Series continues on Thursday, May 14, from 7-8:30 p.m. at the Westborough High School Auditorium with a program called “Sleepy Teens: How Teens’ Brains are Wired Differently for Sleep and What to Do About It.”

This event is free for the community.

It’s presented by Dr. Katherine Sharkey, MD, PhD, who is the medical director at the University Sleep Center. She’s a sleep expert and at this forum, she’ll lead a “stimulating discussion about healthy teen sleep. Take away a better understanding of teen sleep and new ideas to improve it.”
