Limit-Setting Type Behavioural Insomnia in Childhood (BIC)
- What it is
In limit-setting type BIC, inadequate enforcement of bedtime limits by parents result in the child delaying bedtime or refusing to go to bed.
How common is it?
Bedtime resistance is estimated to be present in 10 to 30 percent of preschoolers. About 15 percent of children aged 4 to 10 years old may still have significant limit-setting sleep issues.
