A study of more than 11.000 childrean followed for over six
years has found that young children with sleep disordered breathing are prone
to developing behavioral difficulties such as hyperactivity and aggressiveness,
as well as emotional symptomsand difficulty with peer relationships, according
to researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshive University.
Their study, the largest and most comprehensive of its kind, published online
today in the journal pediatrics.
“This is the strongest evidence to date that snoring, mouth
breathin, and apnea abnormally long pauses in breathing during sleep can have
serious behavioral and social-emotional consequences for children, “said study
leader Karen bonuck,ph.D., professor of family and social medicine and of
obstetrics & gynecology and women’s health at Einstein. “ parents and pediatricians
alike should be paying closer attention to sleep-disordered breathing in young
children, perhaps as early as the first year of life”.

*My opinion :
Sleep disordered breathing could be heal if parents can prevent
it by teach them for a simple exercise such as swimming. Children also need to
do sport for their health. And the children used to take a nap or rest their body
after playing so they will not feel so tired. And eat a healthy food, do not
make them love junk food. Just teach the children to live with a healthy life.
