Late-Night Phones Steal Teen Sleep

Late-Night Phones Steal Teen Sleep

Published 10 hours ago
Description

New research reveals that over half of teens are glued to their phones for an hour or more on school nights—often between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.—stealing precious sleep time. This late-night scrolling, fueled by social media, gaming, and videos, keeps minds buzzing and disrupts rest, leading to impaired learning, mood swings, anxiety, and even heightened depression risks. Many teens admit to being woken by notifications and immediately reaching for their devices, making it harder to fall back asleep. Experts urge families to tackle this together: parents should model healthy habits, set clear screen boundaries, and create tech-free zones to restore sleep and overall well-being.
