Read and or view the following resources after reading your text to prepare for this discussion topic. Some parts were initially created in 2002 so you might find a few dated elements, but the articles/topics on Teen Sleep and the Teen Brain in Progress still provide a compelling foundation for understanding teen behavior and continue to be researched as evidenced by the 2017 position statement by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine Position Statement.
