Teens and sleep: Teenagers have notorious sleeping patterns but to sleep until 530pm is not normal. He shoueld be counselled on sleep hygiene and be seen by his doc to see if he has any medicla condition csausing him tohave this abnormal sleep apttern. Does he go to bed on time at night? Does he sleep thru the night or not?

Many reasons: The 1st likely cause is behavioral dyssomnia. That means his behavior disrupts his sleep. This could be staying up very late video gaming, face booking, texting, or watching videos. Next would be drug use. Next would be caffeine over use or energy drink use. This behavior should trigger a visit to his pediatrician for full evaluation.
