Hell to the yes.

There's also some pretty compelling research that indicates pretty drastic circadian rhythm shift: teenagers naturally stay up later and wake up later (while also sleeping more). More than that, if you allow a teenager to go to bed at 2am and wake up at noon or 1 in the afternoon they're a lot less likely to be surly and disconnected.

It upsets me a little that we're only now incorporating neuroscience into parenting.
