wear a diaper Alex
Well first of all you could not make him ashamed of it by acting as though he has to hide it.
That being said being a bedwetter is a personal experience. I would just tell him to put it them in his duffle bag. Often times there are trash cans around the camp site, and he can just change them in the bathrooms. (most campsites have outhouses).
Another thing you can do is do a mock camping trip. Most areas have day camping. You can gon in the middle of the week and he can scout it out. Sesquidpedalian
he can change into his pajamas before the other boy comes in..my brother had the same problem..if his friend finds out…he will just have to act natural about it, because there are some things that you cannot control and that would be one of them krispy kreme
Poor chicken! make sure that he is first in bed, maybe hide his goodnights in his sleeping bag to do a descret change before sleep and then he can slip them off in the morning and leave then in the sleeping bag until he can dispose of them.
I hope he has the best time!! Spooky1
Well he can have them on and have other long pants on. And you’re son has nothing to be afraid. Everyone is different. I’m sure you’re son is very strong. If they laugh It’s them making themselves miserable. And there is nothing to be laughing about. And they will usually end up with a problem by doing that. Best luck to you and your son! god bless you

Go to the doctor there is medication for this. When I was young I had the same problem and I was prescribe a medication to take while I went on a trip and it work. Make sure he uses the bath room right before he goes to bed and don’t drink too much before he goes to bed. He might get made fun of if he wears goodnights. However if he can cover them up with boxer briefs and boxers then he could get up in the morning and go to the showers and take them off in privacy. Juliet
If it is a true friend he will understand without making fun of him.Otherwise,he needs to change in the bathroom into pajama’s;instead of in the sleeping area.The sound of paper rubbing is a dead giveaway though and many pajamas won’t hide bulky underwear very well.Does he have a bathrobe to wear before bed? gary s
it is called underjams they are awesome and they are like underwear they are not even konw they are being worn katiesmom4805
LET HIM GO TO CAMP AS NORMAL AND LET HIM CHANGE IN THE BATHROOM ALSO EXPLAIN TO HIM BEFORE HE GOES TO CAMP WHAT ACTIVE BLADDER IS AND THAT HIS BLADDER THAT HOLDS EVERYTHING IS PROBABLY A LITTLE UNDER DEVELOPED AND IF HIS SECRET IS FOUND OUT WHICH OF COURSE HE WILL MAKE EVERY ATTEMPT TO HIDE THEN HE CAN EDUCATE THE OTHERS ABOUT IT WHICH WILL PUT HIM IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT RATHER THAN JUST BEING ANOTHER BED WETTER AND IT WILL ALSO HELP HIM TO FEEL BETTER ABOUT HIMSELF THAT IT IS NOT SOMETHING HE CAN CONTROL AND THAT EVENTUALLY HE WILL GROW OUT OF IT AND IF HIS FRIEND IS A TRUE FRIEND THAT HE WILL UNDERSTAND AND LIKE JUST THE SAME dina
I’m assuming there are parents on this trip. Let the other boy’s parents (or whoever is in charge ) know he has a problem and needs a bit of privacy. Goodnites hide well under pajamas or boxers so he can change when he gets changed. Your son can put them on right before hopping in the sleeping bag so he won’t be running around with a diaper on and risk being discovered. If everything goes bad anyways then the other boy’s parents can try to explain things to their kid, it’s not perfect but that’s the best I’ve got. sandra.macleod@ymail.com
