“I am going completely out of my mind!.. Does your child sleep?”  This was so often my statement throughout my son's early life - and is still relevant today!

I came across a really interesting news article about a study on the sleep problems of children with Asperger Syndrome.  Many of the results rang true for us (the falling asleep ’sweating’ for instance), and the tips to help Aspergers children with sleep were really helpful.  Click here to check it out at my blog and let us know what you think!

Sleep is such an issue in my

Sleep is such an issue in my home too. We have been lacking it for years. I have been giving my son melatonin, but it only works for so long.  He is so tired, but he fights it badly. I know his diet has a lot to do with it. He loves junk food way too much. He will starve himself if we do not have junk food around. I remember one time he refused to eat anything for a week straight! I was so worried.
