I think 9 hours would be sufficient!.
When I was in my teens, I always got at least 8 but mostly 9 hours and I did fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would say between 8 and 9 hours a night!. That would leave you well rested for school!. And as late as you like at weekends of course!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your mom is right, the average teen should get at least 10-12 hours of sleep!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
