  • Summary

  • When your child announces "I'm tired!" it's more than a simple complaint—it's a biological signal. During early pubescence, their bodies are navigating a complex landscape of growth, with brains and bodies undergoing remarkable transformations that demand significant energy. Adolescent fatigue isn't laziness; it's a scientific reality. Developmental changes trigger massive neurological and hormonal shifts that literally require more rest. Their brains are rewiring, hormones are surging, and physical growth is accelerating—all of which consume extraordinary amounts of energy. Understanding this helps parents respond with compassion instead of frustration. These aren't excuses, but genuine physiological needs. Supporting their rest becomes an essential part of nurturing their development, recognizing that sleep is as crucial to growth as nutrition and emotional support.
