I have not heard of a valid critique for school start times should be later aside from schools being a daycare supplement for working parents. But that&amp;#x27;s not science, its politics&amp;#x2F;economics. &amp;quot;The science&amp;quot; is, in my experience, very clear that young people should be allowed to wake-up later in the day to better conform with their natural sleep cycles.</text><parent_chain><item><author>karaterobot</author><text>&amp;gt; This map shows which parts of the U.S. ignore the science.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m starting to dislike the phrase &amp;quot;the science&amp;quot;, since I usually hear it used as a conversational bludgeon.
