This longitudinal study of children from 6-84 months examined parenting behaviors as predictors of sleep problems as well as aggression and inattention in school. The study found that maternal reported sleep problems decreased in children from 18 to 84 months and harsh-intrusive parenting at 6 months predicted sleep problems at 18 months. Maternal reported sleep problems at 18 months predicted aggressive behaviors in kindergarten and second grade.
