Synopsis

Kids often suffer unknowingly from the consequences of sleep problems because their issue is frequently missed or dismissed, by both health professionals and parents.

Sleep disorders are a major public health issue that can kick start a lifetime pattern of health, behavior, and learning problems. From ages four–ten, at least 25 percent of kids have sleep problems. Sleep Wrecked Kids guides parents towards good sleep as the norm, allowing themselves and their children to grow and thrive. Speech pathologist and myofunctional practitioner Sharon Moore teaches parents why "bad sleep" is connected to a myriad of health problems, what "good sleep" actually means, how to identify red flags for sleep problems, how to improve sleep quality by improving airway health, and so much more! Parents are empowered to not only get more sleep themselves, but also to help their children get the sleep they need—every night.

Goodreads review by Jennifer on February 02, 2023

I am an exhausted parent with a child who doesn’t not sleep through the night at 4.5 years old. What are my options? Well, I have two major ones: 1) Discipline, or 2) Look for underlying medical reasons. So often parents resort to #1, and even in Christian circles this is applauded (‘you have to jus......more

As a dental hygienist who is trying to learn more about myofunctional therapy, this was a great read. It was very detailed on the list of red flags for sleep disordered breathing and various potential causes. There were also many potential solutions discussed, as well as muscle strengthening activit......more
