They can fall asleep in the classroom as this child has done, they are often cranky, they are not happy, they tend to get into fights with family and friends more often, they tend not to do well in school and they can even gain weight. Small children will have more temper tantrums and will sometimes be more hyperactive as well which leads to many other issues in terms of behavior.<\/p>\n<p>They eat to gain energy just like adults do and this leads to weight gain since they are also not nearly as active. As parents we need to be aware of when our child is not getting enough sleep and take the steps necessary to help them get that sleep they need.<\/p>\n<h2>Children Not Getting Enough Sleep: How Much do they Need?<\/h2>\n<p>Everyone is different with some needing more sleep than others. Also depending on the stage, they are at in their growth cycle they may need more sleep than at other times. As parents, we have all seen examples when our kids are tired and they exhibit characteristics that are not normal for their everyday life. If lack of sleep happens once and a while, they can easily recover from one or two days of sleep loss. Eight to ten hours or even more of sleep each night is not unusual.<\/p>\n<h2>Children Not Getting Enough Sleep: Chronic Sleep Loss<\/h2>\n<p>Chronic sleep loss i.e. Children Not Getting Enough Sleep for days and weeks on end is something much different and parents need to take steps to change their habits. For example, no TV or phone in the bedroom might be the answer until they catch up on their sleep. Making sure that they are not over-stimulated before going to bed is another. You know your child and you probably know what is keeping him or her up at night. This will provide some idea of what needs to change to enable more sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Teens are taking their cell phones and smartphones to bed with them. They stay up into the late hours communicating with their friends or playing games. This behavior can leave them overtired in the morning and leads to negative behavior. If you are a parent and think that this may be an issue you may want to have a conversation with your teen about getting enough sleep.
