Name	Age	Answer
Chris	16	I got in trouble a few times and he had it so he talked to my mom and they decided to put me in diapers.
		no
	50	My father always made me feel like a baby for having to wear diapers and alway made cutting remarks because of my diapers. Trying to break me of this bedwetting he would pull down my diapers in the morning and rub my face in the wet diaper, sometimes even spanking me at the same time... He hated to have a bedwetter son.....
Dillan	12	necessary, but embarrassing
James	50	he said you like diapers you will wear diapers
Sam	14	not happy about it
dyperboy454	43	i didn't live with my Father, but visited him occassionally. He didn't do any of my diapering, his wife did when i would stay with them, but overall he never really seemed to mind my diapers at all.
Roger		I wet the bed until around the age of 11. When I was around 5 or 6 my Mom & Dad came to the decision that seeing as how I was wetting the bed every night diapers would probably be a good idea so the bed and I would stay dry and everyone would get a good nights sleep. So one night they called me to my bedroom and when I walked in they were sitting on my bed and between them on the bed were cloth diapers, diaper pins, baby powder and vinyl pants. They told me that they had talked it over and that because I was wetting the bed all the time they wanted me to have diapers and rubber pants on for bed and this would happen until I stopped wetting the bed. I did not want to wear diapers and I started to cry. My folks sat there with me and explained that the diapers were not going to be put on because they thought I was a baby, but rather because they thought it would be better if I woke up in the mornings dry. Although I did not want a diaper my parents were firm and said it would be better and that I should try them for awhile. With that Dad took down my pants and boys briefs, picked me up and lay me down on my bed. Mom took the diapers and folded them together to make a double diaper, lifted me up by the ankles, slipped the diapers under me and let me back down on the diapers and put on the baby powder. She was explaining to my Dad all the time how to do the diapers so that there would be good absorbancy when I wet and to powder me so there wouldn't be a diaper rash from my wetting. She pulled the diapers through my legs and brought them to my waist. She had regular baby diaper pins and she pinned the diapers in place so they were nice and snug. She explained to my Dad how to pin them to be snug. Then she took the rubber pants and shook them out to open them up. At that time in my life they were the biggest rubber pants I had ever seen, a size toddler large and they came from either Woolworth's or Sears. She pulled them on over my feet and up to my knees. Dad picked me up off the bed and stood me up on the floor. Mom explained to him and showed him how the padding from the double diapers covered me and went between my legs and up my butt. Then she told him that the rubber pants had to completely cover the diaper and she pulled them up over the diapers and showed him that there was no cloth showing outside of the rubber pants. She looked at me and said ok Roger now you can go to bed. They helped me into bed, tucked me in, kissed me goodnight and left the room. In the morning they came into my room, the rubber pants were pulled down and Mom showed Dad how the diapers and rubber pants had done their work and the bed was dry.
Zach	13	That if I was going to wet the bed like a baby, I should wear diapers like one.
	13	He was sorta mad at m, but not too much.
Tim	13	He was sorta mad at m, but not too much.
Austin	14	He thinks I am just tried to get attention from my mom all the time and hates seeing me wearing diapers.
Tad	34	Since it kept me dry at night and the bed and sheets didnt stink, he was happy.
Tim	13	He thinks that I am a little baby.
Nick	15	dosent know
Tod	43	He was ok about it.
Brandon	25	He knew I wanted to wear diapers but he tried to keep me in regular underpants. I would have an intentional "accident" in my regular pants and he figured it was an attempt by me to get back into diapers but he went along with it. So every few months when I felt like wearing diapers again, I would wet or poop in my pants and be put back in diapers. We would talk about it as periods of weak control. One time, my Mom said no to diapers, so I wet my pants in the grocery store. She changed her mind.
babyboy101	12	hated the idea
Marc, D.J., Kevin, Jody, Joey, & Keith	16	My Dad, also grew up much of his childhood wearing & using diapers, along with his brother, My Uncle. So at the age of a toddler for me, when I faught potty training, dad & mom, just let me have my way, & I never was potty trained, since my Brothers & I, are home schooled, when my brothers were born, my family just kept us boys in diapers, & became advocates of the fact that boys belonged always in diapers.
Tommy	18	I think it embarassed him and hurt him that his only son was still wearing disposable baby diapers long after a normal child would have been out of diapers. He considered me the "man" of the house when he was gone but the man had to wear Huggies every night to keep his bed dry.
baby robert	32	he hated it

Describe how your father's feelings differ from your mother's feelings, if any:

Name	Age	Answer
Chris	16	they were the same as my mothers.
		yes
	50	My mother had me wear diapers for my bedwetting andmade me feel as comfortable as possible haveing to wear them. My dad knew I was to old to be babied and took ever chance he could find to remind me of this fact.
Dillan	12	none
James	50	mom thought he was to hard sometimes
dyperboy454	43	my dad didn't have many feelings toward me one way or another, but my Mom was and is very loving and caring and supports my need for diapers.
Roger		Sometimes when it was time for me to get ready for bed Mom would get the diapers out and realize that the rubber pants were all hanging in the utility room downstairs and she'd tell me to go get rubber pants for bed which I did and Mom would put diapers and rubber pants on me as usual. Sometimes when she was out and Dad did the diapering and found no rubber pants I would have to walk through the house wearing only the diapers, go downstairs get a pair of rubber pants and pull them on over my diapers and then go to bed. If my sister was doing her homework at the kitchen table she would giggle as I came up stairs and walked by her with my rubber pants crackling because they were cool from hanging in the cool cellar.
Zach	13	She wants me to have Goodnights.
	13	My mom was angry too.
Tim	13	My mom was angry too.
Austin	14	Big difference. Mom lets me wear diapers if i want to wear them. She tells my dad just to leave me alone and don't think about me wearing diapers. Dad tell her that I have to start to grow up and stop being a baby and start being a man.
Tad	34	They both felt the same. If my bed and everything stayed dry wearing diapers, then thats what they would get me.
Tim	13	My mom thinks the same way.
Nick	15	dosent know
Brandon	25	He was more understanding of my "problem."
babyboy101	12	my mom wanted me to but dad did not
Marc, D.J., Kevin, Jody, Joey, & Keith	16	I really don't think that my dad's feelings differ much if at all about boys being in diapers & using them, My Momma, though younger than dad & Uncle Steven, she knew that they wore & used diapers, & she was their baby sitter when they were young. Mom, grew up my sisters, Patti, & Cheryl, to love & promote the idea that All boys belong in Diapers. Our friends, Joey, Jody, & Keith, have been in Diapers, for one year now. It all started with them being bad, very bad & getting into trouble last year, just at the beginning of the summer. As part of their punishment they were put into diapers, & also made to use them for their intended purpose. When they met my brothers & I, last summer they came to love diapers so much they have been in them ever since. But their Father & Mother, state, "they have be come so much easier & better to handle, since we've put them into diapers,
Tommy	18	My mom wasn't embarassed about my having to wear diapers until I was a teenager at all. She would change me anywhere and would often make me run around in nothing but a Huggies all day if I had peed in my diaper the night before as punishment. Even though I wasn't the youngest child, she considered me the baby of the family because I needed to wear diapers to keep my pants dry and was small enough to comfortably fit into baby diapers until I was 12.
