And after watching most of our kids struggle getting up, I honestly wish schools were a decent amount later, like 10AM start? I bet most kids will do a ton better, sadly any crazy changes like this never seem possible in a usable amount of time. all my kids will be grown before anything major changes.
But Yeah, it sure would be nice to get the damn clocks FIXed with no more twice a year changes.

Why can't schools, businesses, etc. simply change their hours if they want more daylight before or after school and work? Do people want everything to run on the same mandated hours so that parents work times and kids' daycare school are in sync? I have in the past worked for companies that went on "summer hours" to maximize the daylight hours for other activities after work. Basically, double DST. Perhaps the surprising thing about it was I don't think the company gained anything, they did it because employees liked it. Also, several of the companies I worked for had "flex hours". Typically this gave employees 1 or 2 hours flexibility on their start time as long as they put in their 8 hours and everyone was in the office for some core period like 10-4.
