I can't remember where I said that line, but i think it's a good line. The fact is: there is a very good chance that some students at my school wear a diaper. In fact, I would say its highly unlikely that there are zero students (excluding M/S) who have protection for bladder problems at my school. However, nobody would know because they manage it so well. It's the same reason nobody know that I'm wearing a diaper. Just based on the way she is described, Hannah would be in an M/M SDC (apologies for the acronyms). SDC is self-contained, so 100% of the class peers have an IEP Another thing to note is the difference in attitude between K-6 and 7-12 SPED teachers. K-6 Sped teachers are usually maternal (I call them mother-hens). BTW- a lot of parents have the same attitude. By 8th grade, we realize there is a deadline quickly approaching, and they need to be independent by the end.

We have a severe class at our school, and I know most of the students (like 10 students) and some of those students are in diapers. The kids in that class are not able to communicate at a significant level, which sounds like the level that your wife is in. Behavior is communication, so smearing poop is the kid trying to communicate. PS- that's why I don't teach in that class. We have life skills, and these kids don't get a diploma. These are kid's with down's syndrome, and functioning closer to elementary school (very nice kids). Most, if not all, use the bathroom without prompting. I heard the teacher (she's my neighbor) say that one of her students' mother still wipes him, but as far as I know- that is not an issue in her class. It's hard to gauge Hannah's functioning level from the story, but based on the narration- she seems to be mild/moderate rather than M/S. At that point, they are functioning and navigating the campus independently. I have a colleague who taught M/M at an upper elementary. She shared that she had a student who wore Pull-ups, but could independently change them when necessary. I've personally never dealt with this in my career, but I know that we would be responsible if a child wasn't able to independently use the toilet. With that being said, there are about a combined 3000 adults and students at my high school. I can say with 100% accuracy that at least one of them wears a diaper to school, and as AFAIK- nobody else knows. There is a non-zero chance that there is another person in diapers at the school that isn't part of the M/S program, and there might be ten people in diapers. On a given day, there are about 9 or 10 students on crutches

It took me a long time to get 24/7, and I didn't have a definitive where I decided to go 24/7. I just slowly started to wear more often during the day. It got to the point where i was wearing more often than not. Ironically, the final stage was where i would remove a wet diaper in the afternoon after showering from the gym and go 3 hours without a diaper at home. I went from only wearing at home, and at the end, I only wore underwear at home.

Outed for what, exactly? What is she doing that she needs to outed BTW- I'm proud of myself with how I responded to you. You made a post that attacked people for how they handle their incontinence, and I was personally thanked by posters in a PM for my response. They felt supported because I spoke out against bullying. WTF to do decide what counts as genuine incontinence? Who are you to police people's symptoms with their various conditions? What gives you the right because their symptoms aren't what you think they should be? And who are you to speak for the entire MS community? She has 9k subscribers. Do you understand just how small that is?

First of all, you agreeing with Andrew Tate is telling. You're a 59-year-old male, and should have the life skills to know Andrew Tate is conman who preys on young woman, and fills weak minded young teenage boys who are too immature to know better. I'd expect somebody over the age of 30 to know better, but sadly that's no longer the case. Second of all, WTF would I feel oppressed? I'm old, I'm white, and I have a penis. That pretty much the definition of the majority. The only part of me that would make the majority scared is that I'm assexual, but in reality, it's not a massive part of my identity. FTR- nor are diapers. I however was raised by parents who taught me how to treat people. I didn't have to taught to respect women, because I knew that it was expected. I didn't have to be taught to respect our differences, because I knew that was expected. My dad grew up in a conservative home, but it was a home that taught me how to selfless and think of others. It's the opposite of what you're portraying with your criticism of somebody who isn't doing any harm. Because I think of others, I know full well that there is oppression. I've seen it first hand, and have definitely seen it on the internet. FTR- Vivek could have been an excellent, if he didn't try so hard to pander to selfish people who are afraid of their own shadow. He's right, Republicans don't have a definition, and I don't you do either. You don't understand what he said, and if you did, you would have a hard time explaining why that's a bad thing. This is the part i don't understand. Wokeness isn't about feeling oppressed. It's about understanding what oppression is, and trying to do something. That's means that I'm proudly woke. It's how I was raised, and it's how I live my life. It's why I eagerly help people.. Now that I'm older and can't see as well, I appreciate the help that I get from other people. The anti-woke would ask, "Why can't you follow your golf ball?" They judge me because I can't do basic household maintenance. It's basically a world of negativity. Now, Pree is still a very young lady, who developed MS and has suddenly found herself incontinent. Based on the comments and videos, she began to isolate herself because she was having accidents. Understandable, and far too many people choose that option. She resorts to adult diaper and finds fredom, and does videos explaining that to other posters. Is that bad? Is that harmful? You, on the other hand, choose to criticize her because you don't think she tried everything to treat her MS and is exhibiting herself. FTR- she is exhibiting herself, but that's how she is getting her message accross. The other side would be to do nothing, which is probably what I would do. But it's her choice! You also advocate for an unconventional and unproven diet to treat MS. Now, even if you were an MD, you don't have the information you need to make a treatment. Doing so is unethical and unsafe. To do what you did is wrong. You don't know anything about being a 19-year-old woman diagnosed with a progressive disease that takes away your independence. Unlike @Jumpin Jack, at least you haven't tried to imply that she is faking it for views, but you're being judgemental about things that you don't understand. You're also projecting motives on her that she isn't doing. She not pushing for MS Pride. She not complaining being oppressed by the masses because of her MS. She is complained about being oppressed by her body, because having MS sucks.

Can you define woke? BTW- the world is falling apart because we're a-holes to each other. Congratulations it appears that you're helping in that mission. If we can stop being a-hoes, maybe we might actually make headway on the problems. However, you probably feel asking people not to a-holes is woke, and instead prefer that the world is full of judgmental pricks. Pree is doing nothing wrong, and yet she got your panties in a twist and called her and me woke. I read some of your previous stuff, and you clearly have some conspiral Andrew Tate type of ideas in your head. I know the world that you want to live in, and i don't want any part of it.

It's the internet sleuths being judgemental pricks. You've got your panties tied up in wad over something that is relatively harmless

If this happened when Eddie was six years old (which it kind of did), I think it would have raised suspicion but not been outrageous. That's closer to where he is at mentally. Keep in my mind that his male role models are his dad, a childlike single uncle (Teddy), and an uncle who doesn't know how old he is. His paternal grandfather has dementia, and his maternal grandparents haven't appeared in this story. I have regressive tendencies, but I also have strong male role models. Aside from my dad, who is not at all Eddie's dad, I have 3 uncles. None of them are the Adam Tate macho BS, but they are just good strong male role models. I based Eddie's distant uncle after my dad's BIL, and he was a Lutheran Pastor. As I got older, I like the dude, but I never got to know him. The sibling relationship between Sarah and Eddie is based on the relationship I have with my older brother, so, technically, he is another male role model for me. If you think about it, how could Eddie ever know what is expected from a man when nobody he knows is one? FTR- Eddie has no place to go. His aunts won't help him, and his grandparents are out of the picture.

It's a perfect storm. I'm fairly regressive, but even with all the factors, I would have fought back. At 12, I might have accepted it, but not at 15 years old. The PlayGroup normalized the behavior. It also required the mom to be willing to do this, a dad willing to stand by, and a sister willing to comply. How willing would an au pair be to work with Eddie?

I agree. I played golf, which was fun, but it was better today. I woke up with a really soggy diaper. By 4 my diaper was really soggy again, so i had to change again.

George knows he has balls and even knows where they are. They are locked away in a cabinet, and Alice unlocks it whenever she needs them. The last time was July in 2005. You'll learn more about Sarah's motivations in a couple of chapters. By this point in the story, you have to admit that Eddie bears some responsibility for his predicament. Okay, he was gaslit into going into this program, but he had ample opportunities to avoid it before the start. He didn't have a lot of control after it started, but he's messed up the chances he has had. And he messed up his chance to be potty trained. A child without any regressive tendencies would never accept something like this, and even somebody with those tendencies wouldn't accept it at Eddie's age. It's a perfect storm because Eddie's mom is equally prone to doling out that treatment. The 6th grade me might have accepted this fate.

I don't have a great feel for mom's inner thoughts, especially at this stage of the story. So far, up until the failed potty training experience, everything has gone to plan. The plan was to treat him like a two-year-old for enough time that he was used to wearing diapers, and then reintroduce potty training with the hope to that he gets to the point where toilet training is hard-wired. If you ever tried to wet yourself after years of using the potty, you'll know how difficult. Eddie was extremely difficult to potty train the first time, so mom likely expected it to be difficult this time. Eddie hates being yelled at, so he fairly compliant. Mom would see him as a child who is eating well, sleeping well, and well-behaved. Another factor is that mom clearly enjoys having children in that post-infant diaper stage. For her, changing Eddie's diapers is not a bad thing. With that being said, they are supposed to follow the same potty training method, and Caitlyn spent almost a month in diapers after. The idea is that you try but stop if it looks like they aren't ready, and wait for a long enough time that it counts as another attempt. Think a month rather than a week. It's only been a week since they gave up the first time, and they are starting again. She likely realizes Eddie can't go to school and be treated like this all the time. If he stays home, somebody still needs to watch him, and Sarah also has school, so she is not a good option. I'm not writing some special high school that treats kids like babies, so Eddie has to be age-appropriate in front of his peers. As school gets closer, mom's methods change. Hopefully, my American analogies don't screw you up. There is a big curve ball coming with George. Ashley and Sarah also have one coming up, but that one might be easier to figure out. I'm curious if anybody is still wondering about Eddie's sexual identity. I'm also curious how Eddie's rant about teenage boys being jerks, and girls being mean hit you? The kids at Eddie's school are a-holes, but they are a-holes to everybody. Individually, they are fine, but in a group? On the other hand, Tara's and Caitlyn's peers are cruel, and the bullying would be far worse.

Of the three older diapered children, I would say Tara's psychological situation is worse than Eddie's. Whatever happened to her when they tried to potty-train her (I know, but Eddie doesn't) has traumatized her. I'm writing her as though she's a little kid who is afraid of the toilet. Caitlyn has also regressed significantly and probably has some psychological damage as well. Remember, all three of these kids are socially awkward and get teased a lot. Caitlyn is a year younger than Tara, but they are both going into 6th grade. They had accidents at school. You can just imagine how traumatizing it is to be a 5th grader and end up wetting your pants at school. Tara isn't very good at school, which doesn't help her. Caitlyn is supposed to have TWB syndrome (teeny weeny bladder). She is supposed to have the issues that Sarah has, and probably have issues her entire life. Part of the mom's reasoning for Eddie going through this was to shock him into finally growing up. It wasn't just the bedwetting. It was his overall immaturity, and it was very much the attitude, "If you act like a baby, I'm going to treat you like one." In her mind, she tried a similar. Sarah's push for independence occurred after she had to wear diapers on a trip while Emily got to wear Pull-ups, and it finally hit the tipping point when Emily no longer needed them at night. Back when they visited Aunt Linda, mom hinted that the same type of thing happened to her as well. In a future chapter, I'll share some of the conversation that Mom and Sarah had that first night after Sarah objected to Eddie's treatment. You'll also hear what happened to mom when she was a child. However, Mom's plan backfired. Rather than shocking Eddie into the realization that he needs to grow up, Eddie has become comfortable being a baby. PS-wait to see what happens on the next chapter. Eddie has a friend group that he hasn't had with his peers. He says it's embarrassing to ask somebody to take him the potty, so he decides to stay in a soggy diaper. At this point, Tara doesn't want to be potty trained, and would rather remain a baby than go to school. Eddie knows he has to go to school, but he's not eager for this end anymore.

I've had people reach out with stories that I've stopped, and that does nothing for me. However, when it's a story I'm still working on, it encourages me to make it a higher priority to post.

Based on the article, I don't think it's something that is being seriously considered. It's a study that was commissioned by the former PM. I don't know how laws are legislated in Britain, but I don't know if the opposing party has a lot of power. It infringes on a lot of liberties, so I don't think anybody would consider it.

Name calling. That's a mature way to respond? Do you realize that you are hopping all over the place to prove your point? First of all, it's obvious that she isn't an ABDL At the end, she acknowledged that ABDLs helped overcome her stigma against diapers. At the very end, she thanks the community, which is the final 20 seconds in a 1 minute. Your entire proof is a 20-second clip of a 1-minute video out of a library of 170+ videos. You also claim that she's geared to an ABDL because you can find her videos by searching adult diaper. Well, Google knows that I'm an ABDL, and even for me, AB doesn't show up until the bottom of the page when I search adult diaper. Even through that, you aren't acknowledging the harm that she is doing. Some of her subscribers being ABDL doesn't make her content destructive. What I see if her helping others overcome their stigma against diapers, which helps them live a less isolating life. How is that a bad thing?

Not the longest update, but we're getting close to the first day of school. Friday, August 5, 2016 Caitlyn and Cole are completely potty trained, at least during the day. All five of us have been babies all summer, but today they were big kids. Cole started wearing underwear on Monday, and he hasn’t had an accident since Thursday. His mom said he’s dry during his nap, so he’s almost out of diapers at night as well. Cole even had to wait to use the potty, and didn’t have an accident. I feel sorry for Ethan. He’s the oldest kid in his family, but the only one in diapers. It's taken Caitlyn a bit longer. Today was her first day in real panties since Christmas. Last time, she went back to diapers after too many accidents in her Pull-ups. She started wearing Pull-ups again on Saturday but had an accident on Monday. That meant she had to wait until today to wear panties. She’s super proud of herself. She exclaimed, “I finally feel like a big girl again!” However, I saw her do the potty dance and Sarah whisper something to her. Big kids are supposed to use the potty without being reminded, but I think Sarah reminded her. I know this is bad, and I shouldn’t feel this way, but I was happy when Caitlyn had the accident on Monday. I’m the oldest one, and I don’t want to be the last one still in diapers. I don’t think that will happen though. Tara won’t even sit on the potty anymore. She cries whenever Ashley asks her to try, so she might be in diapers for a while. Mom and Sarah haven’t taken me to the potty all week. I didn’t want to get in trouble, so I never asked either. Sarah took me to the potty this morning, but I didn’t get to use it. I pooped in my diaper while sitting on the potty, which is how they started last time. Maybe I’ll get another chance at potty training before school starts. I don’t think Cole meant to be mean, but he made sure everybody knew he was a big kid. When they set up the highchairs for snack, he said, “I’m not a baby like Ethan and Eddie, so I get a real chair.” His mom scolded him, but I don’t think he understood. “Cole, big kids don’t tease little kids.” He replied, “But I’m not, Mommy. I’m not a baby anymore, so I don’t need a highchair like Ethan.” His mom glared back, and Cole is old enough to know that’s bad. Big kids get to check our diapers, so he tried to check Ethan’s. Ethan and I iced him out after that. He got mad, and the adults made us play with him again. I think he likes being a big kid, but not all the time. He has to help clean up after snack, but Ethan and I get to play. He whined, “Why do they get to play?” His mom replied, “Little kids don’t need to help, because they aren’t ready. You’re a big kid now, so you have to help us.” Caitlyn, on the other hand, acted like nothing changed. She didn’t do anything that we weren’t allowed to do, and never said anything about our diapers. Not even when Tara pooped. After Tara was put in her highchair, Caitlyn replied, “I don’t need a chair, I can sit in a highchair.” Her mom countered, “Honey, you’re a big kid now. Big kids sit in chairs.” She nodded, “I know Mommy, but I don’t want Tara to feel bad.” Tara responded, “It’s okay, you can sit in a real chair. I won’t feel bad.” After they finished cleaning up, I asked Caitlyn, “Why did you want to sit in a highchair?” She shrugged, “I don’t want you guys to feel bad.” “What do you mean?” “Well, I know what it’s like. I used to be the oldest kid, and I felt bad when other kids didn’t need diapers anymore. I’m older than them, but they were the big kids, and I was still a baby. You guys are my favorites, and I don’t want you to feel bad. Even though I’m not a baby anymore, I still want to play with you and Tara.” After we finished lunch, Ms. Tracy announced, “There is no Play Group next week, and school starts after that, so this is our last session.” I didn’t want anybody to know I was sad. Play Group is like preschool, and I know I’m too old for it, but I had a lot of fun. Kids my age don’t play anymore. The boys are jerks, and they’re only interested in girls. I don’t care about girls. I know I’m supposed to, but I don’t. Girls are mean, and they’re boring. They don’t like to do fun things. I just don’t fit in with kids my age. Ethan and Cole were fun, and I like playing with them. Today we pretended to be spacemen and flew a pretend spaceship. It was a lot of fun! I also like playing with Tara and Caitlyn, even though they are girls. I know that Tara and Emily are friends, and so are Ashley and Sarah. I will probably still see a lot of Tara. Caitlyn might come over, so maybe I’ll get to see her as well. I don’t know if I’ll ever get to play with Ethan and Cole again. Their mom promised to set up a playdate, but it will be weird after I’m potty trained. I’ll be a big kid, and they are a lot younger than me. It won’t be the same. Tara noticed I was sad, and asked, “What’s the matter?” I almost shrugged it off and said, “Nothing,” but I didn’t. I cried, “I won’t get to play with them anymore.” Tara rubbed my shoulder. “Yeah, but you’ll be a big kid again, and you can play with kids your age.” “It’s not the same, and kids my age don’t like me.” Tara didn’t have to say anything, she just nodded. She said, “Ashley told me that we will still go to your house almost every day, so we can still play together. Caitlyn wants to come over, so you might get to play with her also. That will be fun!” I whined, “But you guys are girls!” Tara smiled, “Eddie? Emily and I are girls, and you play with us all the time.”

No. It wouldn't come up. When psychologists initially assess students, they ask parents about meeting milestones such as talking, walking, and toileting, but there isn't a lot of detail. After 7th grade, I don't recall them going into milestones like that. I don't think she fully understands what she is in for once she achieves her goal

Good, because you're doing mental gymnastics to prove your point. You're jumping all over the place trying to prove she is doing it for the ABDL audience. PS- all she does is mention the community, which is hardly the same as making a video for an ABDL audience

This is a topic that I can speak on at an expert level. Hannah is a weird case. Her situation seems severe, but she has some high-functioning areas. Not only does she read Harry Potter, but she's like Messi on the soccer pitch. I can see a case where a kid read a high-interest novel but can't add 2+2 and can't complete an application. There is no district that I know of that would ever send a child like Hannah to an NPS (non-public school) unless her behaviors were so intensive that they required it. Maybe it's a different school than her home school, which would appear like a special school to Maddy, but it's a regular school. It's the law- if it's a problem, and it's in the IEP, we've got deal with it. Maddy has not been qualified yet, but I would guess she would if assessed. She would be in mild/moderate class. As a mild/moderate teacher, after 8th grade, our mission is to gently persuade our students to GTFU, while not letting them FTMU (FTR- the U stands for up, and F is what you think it is).

@Mindlesslydiapered hasn't released a video in 3 years. She released fewer videos than Pree but has 4 times the subscriber base. Mindlesslydiapered view counts dwarf Pree's. How it should Be is beating most of Pree's videos. Normally, a TV appearance like Pree's would see a massive uptick in subscribers, but it hasn't changed Pree's subscribers very much. Based on what I've seen with other creator, she could get a lot more viewers by going fully ABDL content. That doesn't appear to be what she wants, and I saw one video where she stated it directly. It's pretty obvious that her content is not intended for an ABDL audience, and a vast majority of the comments are not ABDL related. They are couple of comments about her cuteness, but she's definitely an attractive young lady.

To be honest, I get that. To me, purposely exposing a diaper in public is taboo. Doing it in front of children? Yeah! Red FLAG! I don't think he belongs unsupervised in public. However, some people did far worse to children, and the Catholic church moved them to other parishes so they could traumatize other children.

I didn't realize that connection, and the concurrent sentence seemed harsh. I don't recall seeing what sentence he served. The conviction was in 2010, so I can't imagine he was still in prison when his conviction was overturned. His sentence compared to Brock Turner's shows that one's social status plays a huge role in how justice is doled out in the USA.

As distasteful as it is, I guess it doesn't fit the definition of lewd conduct. I suspect that my knowledge of Utah law isn't quite to the same level as the Utah Supreme Court, so I'll leave it to other Utah judges to make those sort of judgements. AFAIK, nobody on this board is a Utah judge, so maybe we should temper our judgment on whether the conviction should have stood to questioning rather than declaring. It's called the Dunning-Kruger Effect when somebody with limited knowledge thinks they understand an idea better than the experts. It took 15 years to overturn the conviction, so it's safe to say that it required a lot of debate. It wasn't a clear decision. It doesn't say whether he spent the entire 15 years in prison, but if he did- I think that's excessive. Not that I condone what he did, but 15 years in prison for that kind of conduct is excessive. I think spending 15 years dealing with this case counts as time served, regardless of whether the conviction was overturned or not. With that being said, the guy needs help!

That is a matter of opinion, which you are free to share. Based on the comments on her videos, I would assert that your opinion is wrong.
