what you should keep in mind are a number of things....first you need to have a full assessment and testing done by a childrens'sleep clinic
....not everyone with sleep apnoea needs treatment
....there are other potential treatments which are used besides cpap, especially in young children
....sleep apnoea does tend to be inherited
