Do you keep a close eye on the income/expense ratios of all age groups? I'm 33 and I barely have five bucks to buy a four-dollar Wendy's Value Meal.
....you're puzzled by why someone wouldn't wake up to respond to the sensation to pee? I mean, okay, the question I would be asking is why doesn't someone know their hand is being placed in water....
Look, I get it, SOME people are poor (BUT somehow they manage to have an internet connection, which costs money, or a smart phone, etc.), but, come on! Get a better job, if you don't have FIVE BUCKS, for goodness sakes. I made two bucks an hour, as a dishwasher, in the 1960's, as a 12 year old. $3 an hour working in a gas station couple years later. By 18, it was $300/month working on $5,000,000 planes, in the Air Force, with room & board paid for, and all the food you could possibly want to eat.. So, yes, I repeat, I'm flummoxed, even more so for a 34 year old that can't buy a burger. You guys should tell us where you work. That would be an interesting thread...
As for the warm water trick, I know full well who my audience is here... I should have said take a NORMAL person, and put their hand in warm water, etc. THIS DOES NOT WORK. It's a joke on anybody that thinks it does. The joke is that the bedwetting person is hoping you'll do this to them, so they can wet, and the non-wetting person will get up, go pee, and dry their hand off (said MOSTLY tongue in cheek).
Really guys/gals, get lives, decent jobs, and treat yourself to a good burger AND diaper, once in awhile. Don't come into public forums begging for money, diapers, OR burgers. And, for goodness sake, if you can't afford a decent diaper, get a damned Terry towel & plastic garbage sack, and WING IT!
BTW, buy the WalMart Equate brand A&D ointment for two bucks, instead of the name brand A&D for $5, and you can still buy (3) .99¢ burgers instead of the dang $4 Wendy's (kids!) Happy Meal. Kill two birds with one stone!

Yes this is hard to hear and I may get flamed for it but its the truth. If you can not give up one diaper a month for a year to purchase rash cream that may last four years you really have a problem that goes far and away beyond a tight budget.
Peace
I definitely won't flame you for using words of reason, combined with common sense.... Might just friend you!
