Question

my son is outa controle, we think it may be lack of sleep?

Answer 1

How many hours does he need to sleep in order to get himself out of bed and ready for the day on time?  Every child is different.  If you think he isn't getting enough sleep change his bedtime.

Answer 2

My girl is 7 years old and she is able to sleep up to 12 hours on weekends. During school days, it's hard for her to fall asleep right after dinner, if she sleeps too early, she may wake up around midnight. So, to make sure she sleeps soundly through the night, she goes to bed around 8:30pm and wakes up about 7am. Avg 10.5 hours, depends on her activities in the day.

Answer 3

14 hours but I'm 10 and everyone i know goes to bed between 9 pm and eleven pm I go to bed around 10 but i fall out at 12 so 7 hours of sleep

Answer 4

3-6 Years Old: 10 - 12 hours per day

Children at this age typically go to bed between 7 and 9 p.m. and wake up around 6 and 8 a.m., just as they did when they were younger. At 3, most children are still napping while at 5, most are not. Naps gradually become shorter as well. New sleep problems do not usually develop after 3 years of age.

7-12 Years Old: 10 - 11 hours per day

At these ages, with social, school, and family activities, bedtimes gradually become later and later, with most 12-years-olds going to bed at about 9 p.m. There is still a wide range of bedtimes, from 7:30 to 10 p.m., as well as total sleep times, from 9 to 12 hours, although the average is only about 9 hours.

Answer 5

He should get 10 to 11 hours of sleep. My younger son is 6 and he goes to bed around 8:30 and gets up around 7:30.
