		My parents still have themselves (or another adult) change me on every change.
bedwetter	12	they figured that at age 12 i was old enough to handle it my self since i mostly only wore diapers at night for my bed wetting if i woke up durning the night insteat of wakeing them i should be able to change my wet diaper if not i could stay in my wet diaper til morning
Jeff	12	I wish my mom would stop changing my diapers. She continues to insist that if I can't be trusted to go to the potty like a big boy then I can't be trusted to change my own diaper either.
	7	My Mom just stopped changing me when I was 7 and she bought me underpants but i still wanted to wear my diapers and after I realised my little sister knew and she wasnt going to make fun of me or anything I just started letting her change me
	19	they wanted me to change my own diapers.
John	14	good-glad i stopped wetting my pants

Bobby	62	My mothet enjoyed changing my diapers it was our special time. She would put me in thick cloth diapers and baby plastic pants early in the evening I was usually wet before gonig to bed.

Marc	17	When & if I am with any of my adult family, not only my Mom, & Dad, but also Grandparents & other relatives, (that includes sisters,) they change me. My Parents, & sisters, as well as adult relatives still change me when ever I am at home or when they are with me. They likely always will.

Give details on how your parents felt about your siblings stopping their diaper changes on you :

Name	Age	Answer
		My sibilings are younger, so they rarely ever change my diapers.
Jeff	12	She doesn't. My mom actually encourages my younger sister to constantly check the condition of my diaper to see if I need changed. She holds to the belief that if my diaper is changed by my younger sister, it will make me quit wetting the bed every night through humilitation alone. She's right about the humilitation but not the bedwetting.
	19	no siblings.
		siblings never changed me
Ricky	14	My brother is younger (12) and still wears diapers at night - he is not allowed to change his own diapers.

Give details on how your sisters felt about stopping their diaper changes on you (leave blank if not applicable) :

Name	Age	Answer
Jeff	12	If only my sisters would leave me alone. They think that because I still wear diapers to bed on a nightly basis, I'm supposed to be treated like a baby. As such, I can't do anything on my own including taking my diapers off or putting a new one on without my mom's or sisters permission. If I do it without them, I'm punished by being kept in diapers only for days at a time.
matthew	16	still do when she is avalible
Marc	17	My sisters when I am at home, or when they are visiting me, they insist on always changing me.
	19	she got an attitude about being forced to do anything
