Help. my nine year old is wetting his pants?

Question

i don't know what to do. he's wetting at school too.

Answer 1

does he have a new sibling?

changes at home can do that to boys more than girls

think back over home life for changes and remember they may not seem like much to you but could be a mountain to him

He needs love and help regaining his confidence

Answer 2

Think the movement of the bus caused it. Another thing that is causing is drinking too much drinks (soda, sugary juices, etc) that makes him pee a lot.

Answer 3

First - talk to him and find out WHY he's wetting his pants. Second - believe him. It may not be something he can control. As a child, i had frequent accidents. I eventually had to "grow out of it". My parents tried harsh punishments but it was something i had NO control over. Some kids don't. I was probably older than 9 by the time i stopped having accidents on a regular basis. The urge to pee would come on so suddenly that I didn't have time to make it to the bathroom and I couldn't control my bladder - so I'd end up wetting myself. For me, it was incredibly emabarrassing. I now have a 7 yr old daughter who occasionally has accidents. I remember what it was like so i do what i can to help prevent the accidents, but if they do occur, i do what i can to help her hide it. I wish my parents had! So, with your son, talk to him and find out why he's having accidents. If he feels like it is something he can't control, believe him. If it happens on a regular basis, try things like absorbent underpants. Pack extra clothes for him at school - maybe talk to the teacher. Also, it doesn't hurt to talk to the dr - again, my parents never did and i'm sure there was something that could have been done. Many times having a bladder infection can impact a person's bladder control. Sometimes it can be such a mild infection that it doesn't hurt to pee, but still makes it hard to "hold it". Bottom line - looking back i wish my parents had believed me instead of punishing me for something that was out of my control. Be the parent that your son will look back on 10 yrs from now and and think "my mom/dad was so great - they helped me through that" instead of resenting you. Hope it helps!

Answer 5

lol had that problem my parents told me to wear my day clothes at night nd it worked for me  

Answer 6

You asked basically the same question about a "middle schooler" just six months ago.  It would seem like you'd have figured this out by now!  In fact, you seem to have asked a string of questions involving older children wetting themselves for months now.  Ocassionally you start talking about diapers.  This seems very fishy to me!  

The obvious answer, IF this question is real, is to see a doctor.  If it isn't real, then you need to stop wasting other peoples time.  Even if it is real, it's sickening to me that you have been having your child (the 9 year old or the teenager??  which one??) doing this for months and haven't even bothered to ask a professional about it.  

Either way - GET HELP!!!

Answer 7

Take him to the doctor. Sometimes if someone doesn't c**p a lot it presses on there bladder. Take him to the doctor.
