[|Human|] Is it bad for an 8 year old boy to sleep with a large fan (on high) about a foot away from the bed (all night long)?  My boyfriend allows his son to sleep like this each night and I personally dont think it is a good thing, but wanted to get an expert opinion.
[|AI|]  Hi.  It depends on each person's preferences. Each person has a different metabolism based on which his/her preference for surrounding temperature and air flow changes. The person in question is in the best position to judge what he wants. So you may ask the boy what he prefers and how he is feeling after getting up in the morning.  In summer, when weather is hot, there is nothing wrong in seeping near the fan with high speed. In winters and other days when it is cold, it's better to avoid high speed fan as it may cool the body too much and predispose to infections.
