Humour As Nigerians Recount How Their Parents Helped Them Overcome Bedwetting

Nigerians have taken to their social media accounts to recount how their parents helped them to overcome bedwetting in their early childhood days.

The hilarious discussion was generated by Dr Chinonso Egemba on his official X handle ‘@aproko_doctor’, when he asked, “How did your parents help you overcome bedwetting?”

Some netizens said their parents made them urinate often before and while sleeping; others said their parents allowed them to grow out of it and stopped at a later age, another section of netizens said diverse punishments including flogging and disgracing them at school, made them stop bedwetting.
