Article: Huffington Post: Kids with Autism May Have Poorer Sleep

This article from the Huffington Post discusses a new study published in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood. The study found that kids with autism may sleep less each night due to disturbed sleep than children without the condition. This conclusion is based on data from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children, which includes more than 14,000 children born in southwest England between 1991 and 1992. Parents were quizzed about their child’s sleep habits and were asked questions about what time their kids went to bed, woke up and slept during the day.
