How should parents deal with a child who wets the bed?

1. Stay calm: First of all, parents should stay calm and do not blame or punish their children for wetting the bed. This may make the child feel ashamed and guilty, which can add to the psychological burden.

2. Comfort the children: Give the children enough care and support and let them know that this is a normal physiological phenomenon and many children will go through this stage. Tell them not to be ashamed of bedwetting and not to worry about other people making fun of them for it.

3. Check the sheets and mattress: After your child wets the bed, change the sheets and mattress promptly to reduce the possibility of bacterial growth. In the meantime, you can use some deodorant or disinfectant to clean your sheets and mattress.

4. Adjust diet and work schedule: Make sure that children do not drink too much water at night, especially before going to bed. In addition, maintaining a regular sleep schedule can help improve your child's sleep quality.

5. Encourage children to use the toilet: Before children go to bed, remind them to go to the toilet. You can place a night light next to your child's bed to make it easier for them to get up during the night to go to the bathroom.

6. Use diapers or pads: If conditions permit, you can prepare some diapers or pads for your child to prevent sheets and mattresses from being soaked by urine. This reduces the amount of cleaning work and also keeps the child comfortable.

7. Wait patiently: Bedwetting problems usually improve as the child grows. Parents should be patient and not be too anxious. If your child still wets the bed frequently after the age of 6, consider seeking professional help.

8. Enhance children’s self-confidence: Encourage children to participate in various activities to improve their self-confidence. When children achieve something in one area, they feel more confident about facing life's challenges, including bedwetting.
