[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Either completely stop having them or only very rarely (maybe a couple of times a year)?

I know this varies widely— I have ADHD and I’m sure had an accident once a month or something until I was 4 or 5, because I remember having them a few times after 5 and even 6. My DD only had 3 or 4 accidents after turning 2.

But just wondering what you think is around the average? Less what your kid did and more your observations... I guess especially if you are a preschool or early ES teacher or know a ton of young kids.

Just curious, because a friend was proud her her almost 5 year old hadn’t had an accident during a movie and I didn’t think she had any bladder issues or special needs (I know movies are absorbing!) Again, I understand it varies, but just wondering if worrying about accidents was still common after age 2, or 3, or 4, or 5. Like is ~5 rare, less common, really common, almost universal? [/quote]
