He says he’s been feeling this way for a good few weeks, but I am struggling to understand exactly what he means,. From what he’s said I think he doesn’t feel fully awake. Nothing in his life has has changed and he seems to be perfectly well. He is very sociable and communicates with his friends outside school by Minecraft and makes full use of school playtimes for imaginative games. His growth has been slow but steady with no massive growth spurts since aged 7. He’s had the same sleep pattern for a long time - drops off around 9pm and then click is awake and ready to go at 6am. He does seem more mentally mature this year, but I imagine that’s usual for age 10.
Has anyone else come across this with their child? I’m trying to get him to drink a bit more during the day as his water bottle comes back about three quarters full and also try going to sleep earlier, but apart from this I don’t know how I can improve things for him. Any insights would be welcome.
