A member asked:
What is the youngest age usually seen for night terrors ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I've seen it @ 2y: More often described in 5-7yo kids, I have seen this occur in kids as young as 2. I't may occur in some form at an earlier age but discussing the event with the child is a large part of separating nightmares from night terrors. In younger kids they cannot report what they remember.
