Reply from Phil, Child's Age 12 - 2/12/03 - IP#: 216.88.81.172You shouldn't punish your daughter for doing this if it be on accident or on perpose. My daughter started wetting her pants on a daily basis when she was nine, and when asked why she was doing this, she said that she was just not wanting to take the time to use the bathroom. I would just let her wear her wet pants being that that is what she seemed to want to do. Now that she is 12 it has tapered off, I think to peer presure. Love and understanding is all that should be needed here. After all, it's her pants that are wet, not mine. Talk to her, support her, and encourage her to do better. She isn't a creminal. |
