When the situation is resolved in the story, the child may be able to follow the story and resolve his or her own situation. This technique can be used for other situations as well, such as separation anxieties. Try to reduce the reminders you give the child to use the toilet throughout the day. Reminders not only stress the child, they also stress you. Remember stress and pressure will cause you and the child to be more anxious, and anxiety can cause frequent urination.
Children grow at their own pace.
Some develop bladder control early, and some later. Some children sleep very heavily and are not aware of bodily messages. Provide opportunities for achievement. The child who experiences competency in some areas can expand his or her sense of competency to other areas. Help the child make a personal schedule , or weekly calendar, to help keep track of dry or wet sleeps.
