4. Fear of missing out (FOMO) causing major sleep issues for teens
A fear of missing out (FOMO) is giving teenagers sleepless nights as they stay up late texting, chatting and gaming. It's so bad that seven out of 10 Australian teens are sleep deprived, says Dr Chris Seton, a pediatric and adolescent sleep physician.

Children aged 12-to-18 need an average of nine hours of sleep a night. A good way for parents to tell if they are not getting that is to monitor how late they sleep at weekends, says Dr Seton of the Woolcock Institute of Medical Research.
