Dd2 is 12-and-a-half and is pursuing a sport which means stepping up the activity and playing or training 5 or 6 days a week from now on, for at least two hours a day each time.
She's not the best at going to bed early, but realises her sport (and schoolwork) will suffer if she doesn't.
By way of comparison, does anyone else have a sporty teenager who can let me know how much sleep they need/get?
I realise if she's going through a growth spurt (which she might be at the moment), she's likely to need more sleep than other times.
TIA.
