I used to wet the bed until I was about 11 years old . Since the age of 8 , I ' ve been to countless doctors and took pills daily and whatnot till I was 10 . At 10 , I was rather embarrassed of having a ' diaper ' so I had a timer next to me that would wake me up every once a while and mom would too . It helped . Please don ' t take his pullups away . I had the same thing done to me and it was uncomfortable when I didn ' t know how to stop . I was incapable of stopping . How could I stop something I have no control over ? Sleeping became sort of an anxious activity . When I realized I didn ' t wet myself anymore , I told my mom that I ' m done with it . Otherwise , you ' re giving him and yourself a peace of mind for now .
