I don’t have official statistics to back this up, but I’d be willing to bet your teenager hates waking up in the morning . . . and has a room that resembles a toxic waste dump.
Ready to have your mind blown? Those two things might just be connected.
Colin Espie is a sleep medicine professor at Oxford University in England. And he believes the reason teenagers have sleep issues is because of their messy rooms.
He says the air in their rooms is low in oxygen and high in nitrogen . . . and if you keep breathing that, you’ll wake up with a headache after a bad night of sleep.
So get your kid to clean their room. Or at least open a window?
