Hi David. 1) Yes, there is an estimation that 25-40% of children suffer from sleep deprivation. See here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19836689 2) I make a lot of questions about sleep habits for my clientes, such as: time to go to bed, time to wake up, if sleep schedules are regular from weekdays to weekends, if they feel tired along the day, if they take a long time to fall asleep, if it is difficult to wake up in the morning, if they need to take a nap in the afternoon, if they have some problem to breath, and so on.
