Family attitudes to bed-wetting and their influence on treatment.
Bed-wetting can have far-reaching social consequences for the whole family. Seven types of attitude towards bed-wetting have been identified that can be strongly predictive of behaviour, including the readiness to engage in and persist with treatment. Understanding the family's perspective enables a dialogue to be engaged in which takes account of the reality of the family's circumstances.
