Why do autism kids have sleep disturbances

Dear Doctor: ?

Dear Patient: Thank you for writing to Sehat.

Sleep problems are common in children with Autism. The reason for the sleep problems is that the brain is not able to regulate the sleep of the child.

Behaviour issues also have a role to play in this. It is important that you talk to a specialist Doctor to be able to help you with the sleep disorders. I hope this helps you. All the best.
