As has been mentioned before we have 2 older bedwetters and cloth diapers and plastic pants are a normal part of their nightime wear. Having 2 other children who do not wet requires that the parents be very mindful of the ones that do wet and their bedwetting wear and keeping it away from prying eyes of their friends. All of our family is aware of this and we all do our best to help out. When the wash is done and is being sorted and folded it is very normal for another family member to take the dry diapers and plastic pants and put them in the closet where such things are kept rather then in the rooms. The other kids have also helped when bedtimes arrive by getting the diapers and plastic pants out and bringing them to the parents who will be getting things ready for bedtimes and then go about their way as the diaperings are private.
So in our house it is a private issue, not discussed outside of the family and the family works together to help the bedwetters feel comfortable and be normal.

WHEN OLDER KIDS TAKE CARE OF YOUNGER ONES , THEY SOULD BE WARN BY THE PARENTS NOT TO MAKE FUN OF THE YOUNGER ONE FOR WETTING THE BED OR PANTS , TO JUST HELP THEM TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM IF YOU ARE NOT THERE TO. IF I WERE THE PARENT IF MY KID WET THE BED ALL THAT WOULD HAPPEN IS HE WOULD HAVE TO WEAR DIAPERS 24/7 FOUR 3 DAYS THEN REPOTTY TRAIN HIM/HER FOR ANOTHER 3 DAYS AND HOPE FOR THE BEST ...IF IT IS NOT MEDICAL CONDITION OF COURSE OTHERWISE JUST DIAPER THEM HELP GET THEIR COTHLES BACK ON AND LET THEM GO PLAY

Since bedwetters are generally deep sleepers I recommend using a bed alarm. That worked for me growing up. I found
