- Never discuss the child’s bedwetting with anyone without the child’s permission: “Can you let the doctor know you want to work on this? Or would you like me to?”
- Never discuss the child’s bedwetting in public. But don’t make it a big secret either. Siblings are bound to know. Within the family, it is best discussed in a matter-of-fact tone, not as big deal.
- Never punish the child for bedwetting. It is punishment enough as it is. No child is pleased with himself for doing this. Children who act as if they don’t care are probably those who feel the worst about it, or who have the hardest time facing it. Punishment won’t help them to do this. Encouragement will.
- Never shame or humiliate a child who has wet the bed. Of course it is more work for you, but humiliation won’t help him get past this any faster.
- No matter how thrilled you are about a dry night, try to leave this success as the child’s. Your excitement and praise can all too easily backfire into more pressure. Your child is bound to figure out that if you are so pleased with a dry night, you will be equally displeased with a wet one. A quiet nod of approval from a parent is plenty. Leave the job up to your child and let him learn to take pride in his own achievement.
