I won't let my kids do early morning. If they didn't live in Utah, we'd do online seminary and push our local stake to do a once a week after school or before mutual meetup for kids doing it online.

But the research is pretty clear that this is horrid for teens/kids

I survived. And you can get up at 6:30, even if you live 20 miles away. We started at 7:45

The "I survived, therefore it's ok" personal anecdote really isn't convincing.

If you have links to the peer reviewer studies, I'd like to see them. Not to argue, but actually check

Agree. Wasn’t aware you could do it online. Good to know

Same. I think waking at 4:30 for seminary is not a good idea for kids.

One of the split tracks is 9:15 - 3:30. I like that for elem.

I’m for 9-3 or 9-2... I feel we spend way too much time at school

Except schools are for babysitting kids, parents aren't home for that schedule

Yea I know. I realize it will never happen as it only trends in the opposite

It's kind of criminal, honestly, the decisions we make to be convenient for

Yea. I do 72 hour call shifts. The whole thing is so dangerous for our health

It's really criminal. And starts in med school where it's a badge of honor

Mandate no shift can be longer than 16 hours.

Uh parents have to get to work before 9:30.
