Why does my daughter still pee her pants at school?

Is she only doing this at school? If so, you might find out what's going on at school. Maybe she has some anxiety related to school. Have you tried asking her if something is wrong? Whatever you do, do not get angry or punish her for this; it will only make it worse for both of you. Be patient and understanding and she will be much more likely to talk to you about it.\n\nThere are many physical reasons as well as psychological reasons for this but, if it's happening at school only it probably isn't physical. If the problem doesn't go away soon, I would consult a professional. Pediatrician is good place to start and can refer you to another Dr., if necessary.

I think at least half of all females pee standing up if they are not at home because of good hygiene practice. I hope your momma told you that it was a good thing to do !

It could be many things, i'd suggest not jumping to any conclusions too fast.  It could easily just be something like she's having a bad day, or something was said that she reacted badly to, or she doesn't like one of her teachers giving her detention and she's taking out on u all. It could be something like that, but it could also just as easily be something much deeper. Has her normal behaviour been a lil different of late? has she got a lil less talkative laterly? more withdrawn into herself? even just a lil bit? maybe something's happening at home which she's finding it hard to come to terms with or talk to anyone abt, but is affecting her greatly.  Something bad and stressful could easily be happening to her outside of school that no-one at school knows of.  If it is that then i'd suggest approaching the topic with her sensitively and not put pressure on her to talk abt it ( as it's obv a painful and sensitive issue), i'd make sure that u just tell her that if there's anything that she needs to talk abt is going on then you're always open and there for her to talk to u abt it at ANY time, and make sure u can keep to that, if u say that she can talk to u at any time and she rings u up at 2am to talk, then don't get shitty, this may be the time when she most needs u and it wld be a huge betrayal to her if u tld her to come back later and talk - she simply wldn't.  Make sure you're not judgemental towards her or the situation, make sure she feels comfortable being able to talk to u abt it.  If somehting bad is happening outside of schl then   having someone to talk to abt it will help greatly. gd luck.

patience, patience, patience. praise, praise, praise. When I trained my boys there was some "naked time". They hated the feeling of urine running down their legs so would stop themselves from peeing after a few times. Also, with both of them we had a routine. Bathroom when they got up, any time there was a diaper change there was potty time too, again several minutes after they ate snack or meals, again before sleeping. I praised them for just trying and did not make a big deal out of setbacks. Neither of them were fully trained, though, until they were able to dress themselves. (2 1/2 yrs or so)Then when they had accidents it was up to them to peel off the wet clothes, not me. There were not too many accidents after that. Good luck.

If you gotta go...then you gotta go. It's not like we pee with the stall doors open, so there's nothing to see. Using the opposite gender's bathroom is better than pissing your pants.

Give her prunes and juice that has prune juice, or apple juice.  Also do not make an issue over her going potty, you can actually give her psychological problems and there are certain complexs in psychology that I can not rememeber the name of, off hand.  I think she may have a bowel stricture.  Have you had this checked?  By the way take her to another doctor for another evaluation also.  Maybe go to 3 doctors.  You can also buy infant glycerine suppositories, or give her metamucil with lots of water, they have orange flavored.  I am a nurse and have a psychology major also

Yes!  My daughter walks out of the door, properly dressed.  Skirt a decent length, tie properly done up.  Around the corner, down coems the tie and up goes the skirt.  When I ask why she tells me that the pressure on the kids is such that they're considered "uncool" to wear their uniform as it should be.  Trousers would actually free the girls from this pressure.  Also, never ever buy cheap skirts from supermarkets.  They're skimpy and make a statement.

Give her whatever it is you take after you stink up the bathroom...or are you saying you sh!t doesn't stink?\n\nWhy do you do these things?

Cramping....and urinating frequently> Tell her to still keep drinking many fluids!

She might have a UTM....Uniary Tract Infection, has nothing to do with her medical condition. If she is feeling burning when she is urinating, and she might see light blood or puss..she probably has this infection, which is curable. If you can't see the doctor now tell her to sit in a tub full of warm water....and poor a little baking soda in there. Also drink lots of cranberry juice. This happened to me and it scared me because I had no idea what happened. This is prone to happen to people who are sexually active and didnt clean themselves properly after....or for those who hold in their pee too long, or haven't been cleaning properly. See a doctor as soon as you can. I've attached a link to match her symptoms.

I just heard this discussion on a radio program.  They said that when a child who has already learned to use the bathroom on their own--especially children above the ages of 6 to 7--and then they begin either peeing in their underwear or in their bed, that they may have a urinary tract infection.  A parent should have them checked thoroughly by their doctor first and foremost.  \n\nI read a lot and I have learned that sometimes this type of thing happens when a child is a victim of sexual abuse. Talk to your child.  But most importantly, LISTEN.  And even then, read between the lines because if she is being abused, she could have been threatened by the molester and is afraid to open up.

Please read this all the way through, my heart is with you. I have two boys 10 and 6 that did the same thing (flushing). Charging 10 cents every time I found the bowl full stopped my problem. But your daughter seems like she has hit rebellion already. My 6 year old became very sore and he learned his lesson at 4 about wiping. But with your daughter "dirty down there" is not going to work. She's 10 not 4, don't patronize her, think back to when you were 10. Let's face it we were all picking up info from friends about sex. You 3 parents have to get together as a group and realize she is not a child she is a young lady/woman. Lectures and threats are not going to work anymore. She needs to start making her own decisions, educated decisions. Talk to a gynecologist get facts about what could happen if she doesn't clean up her act. Pictures if necessary, of what these diseases can do to her body. She could pick up staf infection just to name one, and wind up in the hospital. (My husband being a fire fighter had a call at one time about a woman with an upset stomach. She wasn't a wiper either her whole body smelt of crap. When they got her to the hospital because no one wanted to check between her legs (which was where the real discomfort was) they found her vagina was infested, stuffed with maggots.)Please do everything in your power to educate her in a way that will help her to help herself make the right choices. Also is she happy with herself, looks, school, and friends. These are all very important to her right now. If she doesn't have it yet soon she will be starting her cycle. You think you have problems now, wait. This is the summer of change for your family. Make it that way, help her, she needs you all just to hear her, and realize she is not a little girl, or even a big girl, she is a young lady/woman. A new hair style, a light colored eyeshadow if not wearing makeup, a few new clothes, you might want to rethink the panty thing. Is she wearing panties that make her feel like a young lady/woman, or is she wearing widebottomed, widesided diaperwear. Help her to feel different about herself. Chin up, no one ever said this parent thing was easy, but think of the good times, keep an open mind, and email me if you need to. We have all been there in one way or another.

Well, first of all, her bladder most likely is not fully developed and so it's not her fault.  So, please don't traumatize your child by yelling at her about it.  Just comfort her and deal with the issue.  Here are a few things that can help your child, but will not make her bladder develop any faster:  \n1. get a plasic mattress cover on the bed.  This makes it very uncomfortable when she pees it and thus she'll really try hard to get up when she's gotta go.\n2.  Don't load her down with drinks before for bedtime.  Give her at least one to one and a half hours before bed in which she isn't drinking.  Also, make sure she goes before going to bed.\n3.  When all else fails, get some Pullups for the girl so you don't have such a mess.  She should only wear them to bed though.\n\nHope this helps...

It is just underwear, it may be provocative to you, but to her its normal. She isn't doing anything wrong...most likely she is only wearing them because all the girls in the locker room are, not to attract boys. Don't make it a big deal or she will just become rebellious (speaking from experience) \nI was the same way and my parents threw a fit over every little thing so I stopped confiding in them and purposely did things to upset them. (I was a teenager, it made since back then)\nPick your battles wisely with teenagers, if it isn't hurting anything just let it be, even if you don't understand it. then when she wants to break curfew or be alone at her boyfriends house, you will be able to put your foot down without so much fighting. Because she will know that you really don't approve and thats its a big deal not just another rule.\nThings lose meaning after hearing them so much. Let her make a few small mistakes, its the only way to learn...and she will feel more in control of her life. Which she will be soon. She will be in college or on her own soon, now is the time to prepare her be a responsible adult. \nJust remember that it is only underwear.
