- dkokelley 19y agoSorry for the confusion. I wasn't referring to infants and very young children, but those around 5-10. Children in the years you point out are growing significantly and of course need a good deal of sleep.

- dkokelley 19y agoWow I never saw that. Thanks for the link. I can tell you that in my experience (oldest of 6 children plus general observations) they don't get that much sleep.
