[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even the daughter wearing them at 6.5 is a red flag. Unless there is something physically or mentally wrong, this simply shouldn't be happening.

The American Academy of Pediatrics says that 20% of 5-year-olds, 10% of 7-year-olds, and 5% of 10-year-olds may still wet the bed.  What do you know that they don't?

[b]That this lady has a problem if all her kids are peeing the bed at that late age.[/b]
And the lady is awful slow at addressing the problem.
That in her post, OP says she figured her DS would get it together after her DD did so.
Not very proactive parenting of an obvious issue.[/quote]

All two of her kids, of whom one isn't actually.
 
Our kid #1 wasn't dry at night until 8. No constipation. No pull-ups. Not "lazy". No issues. She just peed in her bed at night, unless we got her up around 11 pm to pee in her sleep. And then she got older and stopped doing it. No urologist. No GI specialist. No bedwetting alarms. She just got older.

Our kid #2 was consistently dry at night at 19 months, including getting up in the night to pee.

I don't take "parenting" credit for the second kid, I don't take "parenting" blame for the first.[/quote]
