Why should I stop blaming it on hormones? I have the data to back me up

Dude you completely missed what I said and obviously, you are too young to understand. I have been there, forget about what ever scientific data you say you have. So many others here have been there. You say it's being a teenager, but do you really think we all here forgot what it's like? Maybe it's you that has the problem waking up and not the majority of others. You found some random thing that backs your feelings up and you think you can make a case but you fail to take in the other side of the story. You continue to call your "paper" an essay when it is clearly an argumentative paper meant for a debate. A debate that can be rebutted because you fail to take both sides. That is a true essay. Many here have given you advice without putting you down including me, but your reactions are getting a little irritating. No matter what we say you keep going back to what some random person said in some paper. You say you have a paper copy and not a link? Copy it and post it here, I want to see it. I like sleep too bud, I love sleeping in. It's rare for me to get that opportunity but I have a job, kids to get ready for school, yada yada yada, so as you can see you better get used to it. No one ever did a study about hormones in adults and lack of sleep did they? That's because we have the same as teens but got used to it! Theres nothing special and different between the ages of 13 and 19 that differs from adults in regards to sleep. Suck it up, get used to it, and I'll see you bright and early tomorrow morning, or will I?
