What I need to know about My Child�s Bedwetting

What I need to know about My Child's Bedwetting: "Many children wet the bed until they are 5 years old, or even older. In most cases, the cause is physical and not the child�s fault. The child's bladder might be too small. Or the amount of urine produced overnight is too much for the bladder to hold. As a result, the bladder fills up before the night is over. Some children sleep too deeply or take longer to learn bladder control. Children don't wet the bed on purpose. Bedwetting is a medical problem, not a behavior problem. Scolding and punishment will not help a child stay dry."
