- A parent who has a child that may bed wet beyond the time they should stop should take their child to their family physician to have tests done to see how the kidneys are functioning and how the bladder is growing. Sometimes the bladder is not mature enough to hold urine, but will eventually become normal for the age of the child. It is not the child's fault and a parent should never get angry with their child for bed wetting as it hurts the child; they can't help it and it will only make matters worse. Adults of any age can wet the bed a few times during their life (before they hit old age) and they are often shocked they have done so. Sometimes children and adults are into a deep REM sleep and do not feel that urge to get up and go to the bathroom. Please see your family physician and be kind to your child and don't make them feel they are doing anything wrong. Your child is not lazy about getting up to go to the bathroom.
- Many parents have unreasonable expectations as to the age as which a child should become "dry" during the night. The average at which children are expected to become dry is 2-3 years, while the average age at which children actually become dry is more like 5 years. So for about 2-3 years most parents are trying to "solve" a problem that will go away, on time on its own, if they had realistic expectations.
- Punishment or humiliation of a wet child is counter-productive. It is punishment for something that is not done on purpose. Research shows that deliberate bed-wetting is 99.9% unheard of in children at that age. (Would you wish to be told off for doing something that you did by mistake that you did not want to do in first place??)
- Most Physicians do not regard it as medial issue until age 7-8, as all children develop at a differing rate, and it is normal for some to take longer that others.
- The process of becoming dry over night requires a combination of hormones (That reduce urine production) and learning to "feel" a full bladder (to wake up to empty it). These two processes develop independently.
- Some children can be hard to wake up. If you, the parent, can not wake them, how do you expect them to wake unassisted?
- Some people are genetically unable to become dry.
