7yo with stress incontinence?

[aliphil]

DD7 wet herself the other day and told me it was because she couldn't stop laughing. She also said this had happened at school when her best friend made her laugh. Is this normal in a 7yo? She isn't completely reliably dry yet, but I'm pretty sure it's because she forgets/doesn't want to go when she's absorbed in something; she manages fine at school.

It is not normal in a child. I think your assessment is spot on. Try to impress on her how important it is to regularly empty her bladder.

Thanks. I'll keep trying to convince her, and if it's still a problem once we're out of lockdown seek medical advice.
