My dad says that i dont get good sleep when i leave the TV on but i am actually more entergetic and i dont get as tired as i do when he makes me turn off the TV. He says that without the TV and the flashing lights that i will do better in school but i actually failed a test after sleeping a night without the TV. Soooo....whats the deal...

It's called, "White Noise." Like having a fan on or the A/C. Some ppl need a steady hum or drum to blot out the chaotic sounds around the house...even the small ones like the house settling.
You are normal.
THis is a good question.

Some people can not sleep when it is silent. Therefore the noise from the TV makes them relax more because you don't hear all the normal night noises that might freak you out if it where silent. My niece can not sleep at all unless the TV is on.

I don't know. I have to have silence when I sleep. But, on the other hand, my daughter and granddaughter have to have the tv on when they go to sleep or they don't sleep well. I suppose what is good for one is bad for the other and there's probably no real reason for it except you find comfort in the sound while you are falling asleep.

I don't know... that happens to me too! I think I got used to the fact that the lights are flashing in my eyes and am used to them, so when the TV is off, i feel like something is missing. I also hate silence... i creeps me out.

I have to sleep with the TV on. I can't fall asleep otherwise. Hasn't hurt me.

If you don't get the exact answer you're looking for or if not fast enough, give an internet search a try. You might be surprised at what you might be able to find for yourself...

I think it is just what you get used to. Before i got married i had to have silence to sleep-no t.v.-nothing.Then when i got married my husband had to have the T.V. on all night long, so i got used to that and now i can't sleep unless it is on.

sleeping with the tv helps you get your dreams started more quickly. its all about the REM..

it's the same situation with me, there is nothing wrong with leaving the t.v. on, it is different for everybody
