Wonderful subject huh?...

 

Yes,

that's right..

 

Today I found out from one friend of mine that another friend of mine has a bed wetting issue.....

 

OMG I thought to myslef....Then after further discussing the issue another 3 people were indicted......lol.

 

I know, I know,

this is not newsworthy...Whatever..

 

After all I'm not slamming some Republican or Democrat in the process.

 

OK,,,

For you HYPER partisan types..

 

8 out 10 doctors say DEMOCRATS wet the bed more often than Republicans!........LOL..
But Republican cy about it more....

Ok there's your partisan spin....Happy?

 

Wiki Says..

 

Persons who are still enuretic at age 18 are likely to deal with bedwetting throughout their lives.

Studies of bedwetting in adults have found varying rates. The most quoted study in this area was done in the Netherlands. It found a 0.5% rate for 18- to 64-year-olds. A Hong Kong study, however, found a much higher rate. The Hong Kong researchers found a bedwetting rate of 2.3% in 16- to 40-year-olds.

 

 

FOUR TIMES in Hong Kong.....!

What's in the water????......lol...

 

Approximate bedwetting rates are:

  • Age 5: 20%
  • Age 6: 10 to 15%
  • Age 7: 7%
  • Age 10: 5%
  • Age 15: 1-2%
  • Age 18-64: 0.5%-1%

 

I'm done.
