[quote=Anonymous]I am the pp who comes from the "camp family." I do understand that 15% of seven-year old kids wet their beds. That is not a big deal. It really isn't. I know several kids who wet their beds until age 9 or 10. She will outgrow it. It's fine. What IS a big deal is sending her to camp as a bed-wetter. It won't matter that her cousin and best friend are there. They aren't going to prevent her from wetting the bed, and they won't be able to control the comments by others. They will be affected by the comments of the other girls when this happens, as well. So the bed-wetting will indirectly affect their experience, and it will directly affect your daughter's experience. Situations that bring social shame can stay in a kid's memory for years to come, even if the adults think it's no big deal. The camp and counselor and your daughter will tell you everything was "fine" when this happened while your DD was at camp. Chances are it really wasn't fine. [/quote]
