Sleep disorders in children are on the rise. Experts have
pronounced sleeplessness a 'hidden health crisis' for young people,
with 10 percent of children presenting with diagnosable sleep
disorders - but well over half are misdiagnosed. Every year, tens
of thousands of children are treated for diseases such as diabetes,
learning disorders, or chronic pain, when the real root cause of
their ailment may actually be a sleep disorder for which they're
not being treated. In this ground-breaking guide, neurologist and
sleep expert Dr Chris Winter identifies the signs and symptoms of
the most common sleep disorders affecting children today, and he
empowers parents and caregivers to understand the steps necessary
to address and treat their children's sleep problems. From common
issues such as too much screen time and night terrors, to
narcolepsy, sleep apnoea, and more, The Rested Child leaves no
stone unturned. This book pulls back the curtain on the
relationship between poor sleep quality and paediatric epidemics
related to psychiatric health, rising obesity, ADD/ADHD, pain
disorders, and other undiagnosed disorders of sleepiness and
fatigue. Finally parents have a resource to help them uncover the
root of their children's problems, and, more important, to provide
the answers on how to help.
