Children's bedtimes and sleep problems: read Professor Tanya Byron's answers to your questions

2 replies

We're delighted that consultant clinical psychologist Prof Tanya Byron is our webchat guest on Monday evening to answer your questions about children's sleep - how much they need at different ages, how you can stop bedtimes turning into a battle, and how can you encourage your children to sleep through the night.

Tanya is leading the Bedtime Live team on Channel Four on Tuesday evenings at 8pm, trying to provide parents with techniques to get under-10s into bed by 9pm and to get teens into good sleep habits.

You've already been discussing her warnings about the effects of sleep deprivation on children's development on this thread.

So, whether your children will be soundly asleep or deploying endless delaying tactics at 9pm on Monday, do come and put your question about children's sleep to Tanya.

You can find out more here about Bedtime Live and the topics it has covered so far. The next prog (Tues 9 April, 8pm) will look at the effect of lack of sleep on first-time fathers.

Hey everyone,

Tanya's online now, and selflessly missing the wall-to-wallThatcher coverage on the BBC to come and advise you on your sleep woes. Thanks, Tanya, and over to you ....

Thanks everyone for a great, and informative, chat. We're waving Tanya off now for some well-deserved Wine - for those of you whose questions Tanya didn't get a chance to respond to (and those whose questions she did!) you can catch her on Bedtime Live on Channel 4 tomorrow. Smile
