my son is 5yrs old and has having sleep problems he is going down at a good time about 7.30pm and going to sleep but gets up through the night looking for mummy, and when daddy goes in he doesnt like it and he throws covers off and bangs his head until he gets his mummys attention and i have to go in and see him as i am concerned that he might do damage like harm himself. he has a severe learning disability. i just want adice from Supernanny Jo frost.

i forgot to add that my son has severe learning disability.

Karen, have you had a word with your Doctor or health visitor? They may have ideas on how to help.

i have tried talking to health visitor noone will listen to me. When it comes to kids being disabled they dont wanna know so its a matter of fight fight fight to make them listen. i have been in touch with sleep scotland and they said that i need a sleep program but how long is a peice of string to wait for a councellor.
