BETTER HEALTH JKDB.J. ROSSLYN EARP 11 * lrxjSpii'SriMßi BED WETTING We may have forgotten our di aper days yet we have all been through the statge of learning to control certain muscles which we could not control in our infancy. Some children learn slowly. Whfen they have difficulty in learning the problem is usually one of mental hygiene. Some specialists would say it is always a question of mental hygiene and perhaps they? are right. It must be admit ted, however, that in a few cases the habit of bed wetting can be much more quickly broken after some physical source of irritation like threadworms for instance, has been removed. In these days when toddlers are taken regularly to the doctor, or at least visit the preschool clinic, we may suppose that such physi cal troubles have all been proper ly treated and we are faced only with a problem of education. Do not try ridicule; it will prob ably make the child worse. The youngster needs encouragement, he needs self-confidence. Punish ment will do no good; rewards are unnecessary. Give a child a calendar to keep beside his bed and let him mark with a red pencil every date that celebrates a dry night.
