Wetting the bed affects Jack and Paddy in many ways: • Their feelings • Their lives • Their family life
Jack and Paddy are not alone, they have help from others: • Bedwetting can happen to children of all ages. It is more common in young children, although some teenagers (between one in 50 and one in 100) still wet the bed • Both boys and girls can wet the bed • It is hard for most people to talk about bedwetting, so children who wet the bed often feel alone and bad about it • Some children who wet miss out on things such as trips and staying over at their friend’s houses. Some of them might be bullied at school • If they wet the bed, it’s not their fault • There are three main reasons why children wet the bed: • They can’t wake up at night when they need to go to the toilet • Some children carry on making a lot of urine (wee) at night and it is too much to hold onto until morning • For some children, their bladder (the place where wee is stored until we go to the toilet) can only hold small amounts and gets rid of the wee before it is full up.
