Delayed school start will have no effect

Starting later because the kids are yawning and can't concentrate (because the parents are afraid to discipline them) will have the same result as the history of traffic light changes.

First, one direction went red and simultaneously the cross direction went green. Then, the yellow light was extended. Finally, after one direction goes red there is a delay until the cross direction goes green.

So we have people running reds because they understand the delay.

High school students are the same. You start school later, they will stay up later. Same old yawning. Nothing will change.

Stop babying them.
