A new study suggests school starts a little too early for many teens.
It has to do with teenage hormone changes that have a big effect on sleep habits.
Sleep requirements go from 8 and a half to 9 and a half hours each night.
But most teens now only average about six-and a-half to seven-and a half hours
Hormones also change the time a teen is ready for bed-- pushing back the natural bedtime by an hour.
