As mentioned previously many people consider pin-on diapers to be the best type of reusable diaper to use for bed-wetting because most of them provide the best absorbency for nighttime incontinence. In general they seem to... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/68577/information http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/66469/companies-sell Thu, 09 Apr 2009 09:58:00 -0400 Colin  There is some slight overlap between this article and my other article “Types and Brands of Diapers to Use for Bed-Wetting and Companies that Sell Them”,however this new article has some additional information.     One of the points I've stressed in my previous posts is that people have different preferences as far as what type of protection to use to manage their bed-wetting. Some people prefer reusable... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/66469/companies-sell http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/57543/bed-diapering Thu, 29 Jan 2009 20:36:51 -0500 Colin     I had covered this issue briefly in an earlier sharepost. This issue concerns me and that is why I felt it needed to be covered in more depth. On this website and others I have read about parents and babysitters diapering  older children with bed-wetting problems. Some of these children are 9 or older. As we all know bed-wetting can be very stressful and in my opinion this stress can be exacerbated by parents not letting... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/57543/bed-diapering http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/52274/decisions-bed Sun, 14 Dec 2008 09:15:24 -0500 Colin    This sharepost is a response to Guest's comments on my sharepost "Bed-Wetting: Should Older Children, Adolescents, and Teenagers Be Required to Wear Diapers?" I realize what I've said is very controversial and goes against the grain of most people's thinking(both professional and non-professional) on this subject. The point of my original sharepost was to get people to see this issue in a whole new light.   <!-- @page {... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/52274/decisions-bed http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/51031/teens-dealing Wed, 03 Dec 2008 21:28:00 -0500 Colin  Being a teenager can be a stressful time in life.There's the pressure of fitting in,preparing to get into college,going to prom,learning to drive.Now imagine if you also had to tell someone of the opposite sex that you have to wear diapers and plastic pants because you still wet the bed?    Teenagers can be very cruel when it comes to people being different.I think it's important for teenagers to be able to talk to other people... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/51031/teens-dealing http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/50491/brands-diapers Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:08:00 -0500 Colin Types and Brands of Diapers to Use for Bed-wetting and Companies that Sell Them     This brings me to the main point of this article. In cases where there have been numerous attempts to cure the bed-wetting without success or if the options available to the individual are not feasible(or desirable for whatever reason) then I think it would be prudent at this point to consider various forms of protection.     The current... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/50491/brands-diapers http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/49948/bed-youngsters Sun, 23 Nov 2008 15:44:00 -0500 Colin Should Parents Require Their Older Child,Teenager,or Adolescent to Wear Diapers to Bed?      I've heard parents say that it's okay if an older child,adolescent,or teenager doesn't want to wear diapers to bed provided they take care of the wet clothes and bedding but I think that sends the wrong message. I think it sends the message that it's okay to be unsanitary. As mentioned previously it's unsanitary and unhealthy(not to... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/49948/bed-youngsters http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/49946/bed-bedwetting Sun, 23 Nov 2008 15:40:00 -0500 Colin   Should Parents Involve Older Siblings in taking Care of the Bed-Wetter's Diapers and Plastic Pants?     Many parents have their older children be responsible for helping their younger child in various aspects of their lives and they might want to involve their older children in taking care of the bed-wetter's wet garments. This is a delicate issue because it has the potential to embarrass the bed wetter.

Some parents take a more relaxed view of these matters whereas others are more stringent. This is also the case with pediatricians and other medical professionals. For example I saw an ad some years ago... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/3328/49942/5-development
