I remember plenty of times when I was made to go to school wearing my pants over thick cloth training pants with plastic pants over them.

I wet the bed until I was six and was changed into terry nappies and plastic pants after bath time by our nanny. I was the eldest and my younger siblings were dry before me so it was embarrassing to be up playing or watching tv before bedtime and be in a nappy. I was then dry for a few years but started to wet the bed again aged 11 when at prep school until I was about 14. At prep school I had to report to the matron each night to change into terry nappy pants and waterproof pants along with the other boys who wet the bed and of course had a waterproof sheet on the bed. At senior school it was just a waterproof sheet and the inevitable wet pyjamas and bed. Due to a change in family circumstances I then had to leave my senior boarding school. Back at home our nanny would make sure I wore a nappy and waterproof pants to bed and had a waterproof sheet on the bed. My youngest sibling was six by then and of course was dry. As things settled down family wise I did stop wetting the bed only to have it start again following a spinal injury in my mid 20s and I am now incontinent and wear adult nappies 24/7. C’est la vie!

I guess your parents wanted to be sure rather than sorry. I can kind of understand them. Had you been fully dry over the day or did you have accidents even maybe not at school?

My mother used yoo threaten to send me to school in nappies but it never hsppened. It was no secret I wet the bed though.

I was in diapers full time until 6 and day trained at that time, I did go thru kindergarten in cloth diapers and plastic pants over shorts. I bed wet until i was 8 years old. Back to diapers full time at 45 do to diabetes. Know the feeling.
