Hi,
The sleep activities your child indicate some unpleasant memories fixed deep in his mind (may be past or recent which the child has gone through actually or virtually) his reaction is displayed in his behavior. Please think over on this point, try to remember any relevant incidence and try to wash it out from his memory to template it with pleasant one. You can take consultation of psychotherapist to find or overcome such memory.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
