General Advice
Quote From: ricschicPunishing your son for peeing in his pants isn't going to solve a thing. He CAN'T HELP it...his getting used to sleeping without his nightlight should have shown you that. This is beyond his control. It could be that his bladder simply hasn't grown along with the rest of his body yet. There could be any number of purely PHYSICAL reasons why he still urinates in his pants. But disciplining him isn't going to solve or fix a thing.
Have you talked to his pediatrician about this? That would be a good first step. There are a lot of resources available...I've seen a lot of pamphets on this very thing in my own son's doctor's office. Your son is far from being the only one with this problem.
Please talk to his doctor...and ease off of him. He's not doing this to spite you...not with the other things you describe him to be. He's not doing this to make you mad, or to get even with you for something. It's very likely just beyond his control. His doctor can advise you better. Please talk to him, and good luck.... i have talk to his doctor about this and they sent me him to a specialist and they performed a procedure i forget what they called it but the doctor cut the hole thinking maybe it was not wide enough and he wasn't getting it all out. what i don't understand is he tells me that he that he knows he when he has to go but it is like he holds it until the last minute, do you still think that is his bladder? i really don't know so i am apperciative of any and all advice i can get.
