i'm male and frequently wet the bed from about 5 - to about 11! i had horrible night-mares in which i urinated! i stopped at about the time i began to have nocturnal erections (it's hard to go with an erection) which woke me up.
my bed wetting began when the dreadful fear of my abusive/frightening dad took hold. it seems that i spent my entire early childhood SCARD TO DEATH OF MY PARENTS. the horrible tensions of our everyday life was relieved in sleep when i'd wet - often several times a night! the rubber sheets, spankings, diet restrictions, self-hate, discomfort, etc. was mind boggling.
there's much more to this but i'd like to suggest that, if your kid is wetting, you might consider the kid's emotional/psychological condition (especially FEARS) along with genetic/physical causes. i know that you, like my parents, don't want to ever admit that YOU ARE THE CAUSE of your kid's reactions/behavior but YOU ARE for the most part! so, do somethng about your parenting!

there are many other causes to bedwetting besides parenting issues.

just because your parents gave you problems does not mean EVERYBODY who wets the bed has lousy parents.

I think you have a genuine point that this may be the cause of the bedwetting for some kids. And I don't think, like some others here, that you are trying to say all kids with bedwetting have bad parents. But for you & your situtation this is true & may be for others out there. I, too get a little irritated when I see parents treating their kids like they did some thing wrong when they wet the bed. I, myself, had a longtime bed-wetting "issue". I mean a really long time. (I must be over it now to be admitting this here.) And the doctors always said maybe it's this, maybe it's that. I had pills, nose sprays & other medications that I would use when I had to sleep over somewhere, but the dr.s didn't want me to rely on that all the time. For me, it was simply that I sleep too hard and it just took time (a really long time) for my body to grow up & learn to wake up when I had to pee.

limit your drinking time and stop an exactly three hours short of your bed time and see a therapist about your nightmares and talk to your parents
