Only 4% believed that sleep had no bearing on their child&#8217;s scholastic success. <strong>Interesting fact #2:<\/strong> Parents believe that an absence of good sleep affects their child&#8217;s mood more than their own mood. Maybe its the well-groomed ability of parents to function on meager levels of sleep, or maybe it&#8217;s a child&#8217;s biological need for solid rest. Either way, the parentals have spoken: 55% of them believe that sleep is extremely important for their mood, while 61% believe that sleep is extremely important for their child&#8217;s mood. <strong>Interesting fact #3:<\/strong>\u00a0One out of every 10 parents said sleep had no important effect on their mood. <a href=\"http:\/\/healthysleep.med.harvard.edu\/need-sleep\/whats-in-it-for-you\/mood\">A study by Harvard Medical School&#8217;s Division of Sleep Medicine<\/a>\u00a0will clear up the confusion: Sleep plays a significant role in how you feel.
