 Daytime fatigue and somnolence may be the results of parasomnias, and when they occur frequently the problem gets worse, therefore, to examine the prevalence of parasomnias and it’s relationship with, age, gender, parental educational level and parental stress, we performed a cross sectional study with the participation of 900 children for whom, their mothers completed questionnaires.
