When you get older do you need less sleep?

I think that when you get older, the more sleep you need, due to stress.  When you have a lot of stress on your shoulders then you will want to find ways to blow off the energy. Whether it is playing games, washing, reading or watching T.V sleep is one of the ways to burn it off. Most people like sleep so sleep will be the answer, but not for everyone. To keep the body running you will need 8 hours of sleep, which is recommended, to keep your body running.

Another reason could be because if you have kids they can be a handful, and they can be stressful. So you can get all the rest you need, BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE A CHILD AND A LOT OF STRESS ON YOU THEN HAVING A EARLY NIGHT WILL PROBABLY BE THE BEST THING FOR YOU.

Final reason to continue my point is that when you have work and having problems like family problems can stress you out and make you tired, because when you grow up you have a lot more responsibility. Also you have to pay bills, which can be annoying because then you may not have enough money for what you want or need. This concludes my reason on why when you get older, you will need more sleep.
