Child's sleep disorder affects parents too By Amy Norton
Thu Mar 8, 10:42 AM ET
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - When children have sleep problems, their parents -- especially mothers -- often have sleep-deprived nights too, research shows.
In a study of families with children seen at a sleep clinic, researchers found that when children had multiple sleep problems, their parents were more likely to have daytime drowsiness.
Mothers were generally more affected than fathers, possibly because they were the ones who typically responded to their children's problems in the middle of the night, the researchers speculate.
"A child's sleep problem affects the whole family," said lead study author Dr. Julie Boergers, of Bradley Hasbro Children's Research Center and Brown Medical School in Providence, Rhode Island. |

I've nominated it for the Ig Nobel Prize. For Peace 
The strange thing is that the owning institution obviously does substantial, and important, work ... |
