6year old daughter peeing herself

My daughter is 6 and is in kindergarten. The last couple months she has been peeing her pants at school, at first she was telling the teacher but lately she doesnt tell anyone. I have tried everything I can think of from talking to her punishing her Im all out of ideas. I thought maybe she would just grow out of it, but lately it has gotten worse, she has now peed her bed. She was wide awake just sitting on her bed playing and peed. I dont know what to do please help.

A lot of children do not like to ask to leave the room to use the bathroom it is best to ask the teacher to discreetly remind her. It does sound as if there is a connection as she was asking to go from your post. the wetting the bed may just be a reaction from doing it during the day ,an accident. Punishing and yelling only makes it worse and creates an anxiety , so stay cool, it will pass..good luck

Is there anything bothering her does she like the school she is in?has anything changed within the family?if no then maybe a visit to the doctors would be best to get her kidneys tested.
