Sleep is important

Sleep is SO IMPORTANT. Many people, teens especially, not only don't get enough sleep in general, but they don't get QUALITY sleep. Quality sleep is important for the social, emotional, and physical development. It's a way to recharge those 'batteries' that you run on every day. If you don't get recharge all the way or if you charge with a weak source, you will run out of batteries (physical, emotional, and mental batteries) very quickly.
