Zzzz does not mean good sleep

Houston, we have a problem. OK, the problem is not at NASA - it's bigger than that. In books, cartoons and films, snoring is used to show that someone is asleep... (t hink Zzzzzzzzs coming out of their mouths in a speech bubble, and noisy snoring and you've got the picture.) My 4 year old son is already aware that snoring isn't good (poor boy!) - he now points it out when we read a book together.  The problem is that if you're snoring you're not breathing properly...  and this will be disrupting your own sleep and that of those around you. (Have you ever tried to sleep when you can hear a snorer?!) So, let's start a revolution . Let's stop signifying sleep with snoring. It's fundamentally wrong and it is reinforcing the misplaced belief that snoring can be ignored. More on that another time! Take it easy. TSL #thesnoringlady
