Some schools teach teens how to sleep

Some school districts are introducing an unexpected topic to their high school curriculum: how to sleep. In Mansfield, Ohio, and several Minnesota schools, educators are piloting sleep education programs aimed at helping teens get more rest—and, they hope, improve behavior, attendance, and mental health outcomes in the process. The initiative, reported by the Associated Press, is part of a growing response to what experts have called an adolescent sleep crisis. Kyla Wahlstrom at the University of Minnesota joined LiveNOW from FOX's Christy Matino to discuss what it all means.
