   I guess with regards to heat, we'll have our turn in August. August is   
   the worst!   
      
   Hmmm, I wonder if my mom made a mistake when she said we were all   
   potty trained by age 1.   
      
   My niece is 10 years old. She wears a diaper for nighttime because she   
   still wets the bed. I talked to her mother about it and she was aware   
   of it and thought she'd have grown out of it by now. My niece's mom   
   had the same problem as a kid and the problem went away at age 9. She   
   said she was going to try some things. My niece has never gone to a   
   slumber party before because of this, and her self-esteem is affected   
   by this. Do you have any experience with something such as this?
