It\\u2019s about that time: the start of the school year. Bleary-eyed kids everywhere are dragged from bed, thrown into clothing, handed an energy bar and glass of juice, and shuttled off to spend hours sitting at a desk. They come home, do hours of homework, squeeze in some screen time, squeeze some vaguely edible goo into their mouths, update their Facebook status, post a few Instagram pics, and climb into bed by 10 PM sharp, Snapchatting their way to the land of Nod. Then it starts all over again.
I\\u2019m exaggerating, a bit. Things aren\\u2019t this bad\\u2014childhood Facebook usage is actually down! But too many children aren\\u2019t getting enough sleep.
