Kids going to school in the dark is not as safe for one. Also not as healthy to wake consistently before the sun rises. It'd be better all around to have the sun up at 4 am in the summer if we were going to stop changing clocks. But I don't get the hatred for the time change. DST is the best of both worlds (which is one reason why it was created to begin with). Most people don't like the hour change. It's really not a big deal. It's one day a year that kinda sucks but then the rest of the year is better. Idk how people handle vacations if they can't handle time changes. And if you prepare by going to bed earlier the day before /after you don't even notice.
