Parents not sleep deprived? We beg to differzzzz

A new study in the American Journal of Epidemiology has some eye-opening findings for tired parents: We?re not actually as sleep deprived as we think. The study, conducted by researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, looked at parents of kids ages 0 to 18 and evaluated how much sleep they were losing at different stages. It?s no big shock that the younger the kids were, the more sleep deprivation parents experienced.
