[quote=Anonymous]"Who sleeps for 4 hours late afternoon before bed? " Everyone who needs 10 hours of sleep but only gets 8 could easily nap for 4 hours in the late afternoon for a week or more before they caught up. Everyone who needs 9 hours of sleep but only gets 7, which might be the OP's son who can't fall asleep right away at 10 pm. If you build up a deficit, you can nap quite a bit for a week or two until you get used to having a nap. Then the naps will get shorter. Like the OP said, she would be ok if he went to sleep at 8 pm to get 10 hours. It sounds like he has tried but doesn't fall asleep around 8. It sounds like when he can fall asleep is related to when his ADHS meds wear off. [/quote]
