Teenage Bedwetting: Everything your child wishes you knew!

By Purity Ndung'u

Bed-wetting in teenagers is rarely spoken about and carries a lot of stigma and emotional pain with it for the sufferer. Parents rarely understand the emotional struggles and physical problems their child is going through and what their role and their family's role in the well-being of their child is.
As parents, there is a lot we can do to ease things in a home with a bed-wetting teenager that will barely cost anything.
The advice and interventions suggested in this book are simple and practical and will create a big change in your child's life both emotionally and physically.
Learn how to communicate with your child properly when they are dealing with embarrassment and vulnerability, what to do when they're going off to camps and sleepovers, and much more here.
Choose to transform your home from chaos and tension to a fresh, clean and happy home today!

Introduction

Bedwetting is in technical terms known as nocturnal enuresis, but this isn’t one of those technical books, so you can breathe in and relax. Here, bedwetting is not going to be a taboo subject or anything to be embarrassed about. We are going to talk about it freely and openly, sometimes painfully so. I’m not an expert urologist or anything, in fact I’m not even an expert in child affairs. At some point I was an expert child who grew into an expert young adult who also happened to be an expert bed-wetter. So from now on, when you quote this book, you can say, Well honey, the expert bed-wetter says it’s ok in her book… I know, my sense of humour could use some work.

I may not have an expert opinion on this subject, (there’s lots of urologists and Google for that!) but that’s not what this book is about. I will give you invaluable insights into a child’s mind about every possible bedwetting scenario you have or possibly will encounter with your child that you will not read in any expert’s book. You will know exactly what to do or say when faced with any number of situations concerning your bedwetting child for both your sanity, and his or hers.

I know this with certainty because I was a bed-wetter until the age of 21 (Oh there it goes, expert bed-wetter ping!). I was an avid writer from a young age and I wrote a lot about my bedwetting since it was an issue of much confusion and shame for me. This book is drawn from those writings, everything I wish my parents and siblings knew about my bedwetting at the time.

Most experts will say that the normal age where children’s bedwetting ceases is around 6-7 years old. However, most parents think that it should be 2-3 years
