[quote=Anonymous]One of my minor children has an autoimmune disorder that is somehow associated with poor heat tolerance. We take it seriously, but our house is old and poorly insulated, and her bedroom gets really hot while the main living floor is glacial. So we bought her an A/C unit that vents to the outside (we just lift her window, insert the vent, and take it out when not in use). Since it costs electricity and the vent part doesn't fit hermetically on the window opening, we only set it up an hour before she goes to bed, and NEEDS colder temps to go to sleep. Otherwise she'd have to sleep downstairs, which is not possible since she goes to sleep earlier than the older member of the family (she's the youngest), and our downstairs is open concept. Maybe your child suffers from an invisible illness, like mine? I would push for some bloodwork, and get him an individual A/C unit, to be used sparingly. [/quote]
