[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not think it is strange for a kid to run around in diapers. What is odd is the age of the child in diapers. Particularly for a middle schooler. Diapers are associated with babies so she was probably confused as to why an almost kindergartner was in diapers. And yes, pull-ups are diapers with a "nicer" name. A MS has likely never had to care for a kid in diapers, or doesn't remember the youngest siblings' potty habits, so what would you expect. This is far from cruel or malicious. I think OP is projecting her own insecurities in having her 5 yr old in diapers at night.

Yes, it is a tad old to be in night time diapers but I'm sure tons of parents in the US still have their K, 1st, 2nd graders in diapers. I mean, they make those pull ups for up to 50 lbs. Come on, parents! [/quote]

Exactly.

Even OP saying “cruel” is very dramatic.

I don’t understand why OP an adult couldn’t just respond to the kid. Is she scared of a freaking adolescent? Just say “no it’s not unusual. We don’t want him to wet the bed.”

That’s it. [/quote]
