Can a child be too old to nap?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No ?: Adolescents have a need to sleep a lot. Besides they stay awake late then they feel tired during the day. If pt takes medicines may be a side effect. If pt falls sleep often while sitting or quiet may be investigated for narcolepsy.
