[QUOTE="JamesRowen, post: 753363, member: 24784"] Yes, we have consulted with her clination, she thinks it may be part of a sensory/comfort issue as well as seeing her friends wearing and using diapers. It makes it socially acceptable for her. (Sam and another friend also wear diapers) We have talked to her (several times) about how childish and irresponsible it is to wet and fill her pants, and how it will negatively effect her life. And how she should be a role model for her friends not a copy cat. She says she will try to use the bathroom, but her pants are wet or soiled before we know it. No, we cant drive her home due to my wife's new job and work hours. Or consistently take her to the bathroom, she knows how to use the bathroom and is just choosing her pants. We spent two years (and several attempts) to potty training her back when she was 9 -11 and were DONE with THAT! My wife and I really have no other option right now. We bought her some adult underwear (pullups) and she has been wearing those for the last two days. When we told her, she would have to wear "protective underpants" she just said "ok". Once my wife put the adult pullups on her she was Exsactic. Our daughter kept flapping her hands in front of her and said diapers, diapers! I have not seen her this excited in years. SIGH :crying: Were having her CHANGE HERSELF at home and We also told the day hab workers that she is to be as INDEPENDENT as possible and change herself. So far she has not had a problem with doing the changes. As much as we hate to admit it our daughter is at a very low level of maturity even though shes now 21. She mostly behaves like a 3 or 4 year old. She has never really had any friends that she has been interested in seeing or doing anything with. Shes now talking about her friends and doing fun activities with them that she would never had tried, had she been here at home. So for now we would rather see her with her friends developing her skills and enjoying life, while wearing diapers. Than sitting around the house wasting her time like she has been doing for years. Hopefully this is just a long phase that she will grow out of. Thank you for your help and advise. Any new ideas would be welcome. [/QUOTE]
