It is vital for everyone, even babies, to have somewhere safe and secure to sleep. I say ‘even babies’ because it is easy to think that babies are not quite conscious, but closer contact makes the observer soon realize that babies have a sense of security. For instance, they might cry if one stranger approaches and smile if a different one comes near. A bit like animals, they have instincts.
When we think of people who wet the bed we usually visualize small children learning to use the bathroom or very elderly people who are unable to control themselves. You may not be aware of this but a good number of otherwise healthy young adults suffer from adult bed wetting. Healthy men and women who suffer from nocturnal enuresis are often too embarrassed to inform their doctor about this problem. Sadly, these people could most likely be helped if they spoke to a medical professional.
