I think a lot of the problem is that at 8 o'clock there's nothing on for kids.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My kids probably stay up too late. My wife goes to bed around 3 A.M., and I follow around 7 A.M., but it works.
If I'm coming in at 4:00 in the morning and my kids have been in bed since 8:00, 9:00, that's not setting a good example. The responsibility that I have kids inside my household has made me realize now that I have to be an example.
I've worked with a lot of kids, and when you're working with kids they have certain hours that they have to work.
A school morning is usually a pretty hectic time in any household.
Lot of work can be completed by 7 A.M.; people who wake up at 10 and 11 don't know what they are missing.
Kids are falling through the cracks and nobody notices it. That to me is what's wrong with the school system.
No one wants to know I set my alarm and get up 8, but I think it's too weird to sleep in too late.
Some kids don't know where they'll spend the night. How can we expect them to focus on learning?
Kids are a huge sacrifice; they change everything - but I'm ready to work for things of greater importance than going out to meet someone for dinner at 10 o'clock at night.
I am at home with my kids from 6 to 8. If I have a work dinner, I'll schedule to have dinner after 8. But we're working at night. You'll get plenty of emails from me post-8 P.M. when my kids go to bed.
