Parents express ambivalent feelings of love and hatred towards their baby. These feelings are particularly related to the child's night wakings and the resulting sleep deprivation. The occurrence of night-time childhood phobias constitutes an organiser of the child's psychic life in order to implement the separation from the mother. Parental psychic positions are therefore very important at bedtime.

Sleep disturbances are extremely common (40-86%) in children and adolescents, especially those with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and are often among the first symptoms identified by parents at a very early stage of their child's development. These abnormalities are among the main parental concerns when having a child with ASD and have a significant impact on the quality of life of patients, their parents, and more broadly their siblings. Sleep disorders are essentially abnormalities of the sleep-wake rhythm - primarily sleep onset insomnia or nocturnal awakenings (with difficulty falling back to sleep).
