My stepson is 10 and wets the bed... he wears night pants, has ADHD and I think ODD, we were...
sitting on the couch and he had on his night pants and simply said well since I have on my night pants I just went to the RR.. i was livid because I dont understand that behavior, he has also peed twice in my car is there a solution to this or is this part of the ODD?
Maybe, but I think due to the frustration I'm sensing from you in this question (which is quite understandable in situations like this, especially when you don't understand why this is going on), that maybe there is some other underlying problem here.
I can see how frustrating this kind of behaviour must be, but try analysing your reaction & maybe trying a different one. These things take time but if you have the patience you may find he begins to either confide in you about other issues or his behaviour may change with yours.
Patience is definitely needed, don't let him sense any anger in you, try giving him more 'positive attention' wherever you can & be calm when these incidences happen. Over time you should get some feedback or result.
I HOPE you have had him checked out by a Medical doctor because there are several Reasons WHY this happens and it is not only Super embarrassing to the youth; hurts their self-esteem too making all the rest of the troubles he has Worse!
There IS medication for this - old people normally take it but this is not that uncommon of a condition and probably NOT at all related to any *mental* issues.
You are LIVID! Shame on you! How can you be angry at something one does while ASLEEP!?
Well thank u for your response and please just let me make something VERY clear..... Saying that I am or was livid is not shame on anyone

Are you an early bird or a night owl?I've always been an early bird. There's just something I've always enjoyed about waking up before daylight and witnessing a sunrise. How about you? Why are you a night owl or early bird?

Since my 5-year old began really talking, she and I have had a tradition of saying our good nights and sleep tights in our own special way. Once she is all tucked in and the night lights on I say "Who loves you?" and she says "mommy loves me." Then I say "Who loves...

Does taking a nap during the day keep a 4 year old from going to bed on time at night?Parents of 4 year olds often ask to allow their child to stay awake during naptime because this is the reason why they cannot get the child to go to bed at night. Is this because the child has had too much sleep...

How can I improve my sleep schedule?I don't like to sleep at all. So my usual tendencies are to go to sleep a 9 in the morning and "wake up" at 8 at night. This would usually be fine for me but it's not for my family. I haven't seen my mom in a couple days and we live in the same house!...
