My son went through the same thing.  Finally, at age nine, we found a company that helps with this sleep disorder.  Yes this can be a sleep disorder.  Punishment and privilidges don't help.  You can find out more about this on the web site: www.enuresiscontrolclinic.com  It is quite expensive, but they let you pay it out.  They train you to wake up when your bladder is full.  Their work is guaranteed.  I think it took a couple of months to be completely free of this problem.

Good luck and God bless.

i agree...people dont really control their bladder while they sleep so punishment is wrong..
