Answers:
I have 4 girls ages 15-24 and yes, it's normal behavior. It may be due to them staying up later as they get to be older teenagers, they also seem to 'catch-up' on sleep on the weekends, I've even had one sleep until 2 in the afternoon!Health Question & Answer

Yeah. I do this on my days when I don't have class because I usually sit up late. But, I am trying to stop. It makes me feel like I am wasting my day. One thing I have started doing is opening my window blinds so that way the sun cascades into my room and wakes me up around 8am or 9am.

Nothing wrong with it. Normal behavior. Maybe you're body is just trying to catch up on REM sleep due to having lack of it on nights before. Health Question & Answer

Oh I hope so. I did it, my husband did it and now my daughter does.
If it bothers you that you sleep late and waste the day away you will have to get up early, not nap and go to bed a decent time. And regularly. I wish I was a early bird person but I am not and never will be. I find it is a waste of time. Hope this helps.

Depends on what time you go to bed, caffeine intake, how active you are, etc.

But I heard somewhere that the average adolescent gets 9.4 hours of sleep if not woken up by an external force/thing (parent, alarm clock, etc.) so just average that out with the time you usually get to sleep.Health Question & Answer

I think at some point in time we've all done that in our late teens or early 20's. Just try not to make it a habit b/c your missing out on life and it's just plain not good to sleep in that late everyday. When I was 18 I use to sleep in everyday til 1pm, but me and my boyfriend who is now my husband would stay up til 4am. Try going to sleep earlier. Get yourself on a schedule and stick to it. You'll feel better.Health Question & Answer

heck yes.lol

I'm 16, and on the days that I'm not working, I'm in the bed
until like 12-ish..
But sometimes it can be a bad thing bc of nights like last night,
I couldn't fall asleep until a little after 3:30, and I had to get up at
6. What a crappy day! lolHealth Question & Answer
