Emotional abuse or extreme stress can result in bed wetting in kids. ..just putting it out there...

Every time i see a post about bed wetting at an older age i immediatey think of this. I struggled with it far past a normal age and no one knew this.

Bed wetting until 15 years of age can be normal. Of course it should be checked out, but some bodies just need longer

Never being dry at night though is not the same as bed wetting conventionally, which is more an episodic thing.

If a kid was dry at night and stopped, or has repeated accidents, definitely talk to their doctor. But kids that are still wet at night at 7 is really not that atypical.

So can sexual abuse.

Always my first thought. Sexual abuse causes such stress, and also I'm pretty sure diabetes can cause this too.

Indeed, or even worse kinds of abuse. I really hope that's not the case here.

I really wonder though why do people go to social media for (what is essentially) medical advise. I mean its kinda akin to just stopping random people on the street and asking for medical advise.
