Provide more details on the ways you know when someone else has changed your brother's diapers:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Patti & Cheryl	18+	Marc, D.J., Kevin, Cousins, Byron, & Timothy (ages 12-17)	14	Each and everyone of the family that are responsible for changing the boys diapers, are very meticulous and all do a very splendid and excellent job.
Bryce	16	Andrew	13	Andrew is usually in a better mood when he's had a change, or he'll be shy. He only wears at night and if mom or dad takes him to get his diaper on for bed, i'll totally know when he comes back down stairs
Amy	18+	David	14	We all use baby powder, and I can smell the sweet scent of baby powder before he wets; Plus his diapers don't sag when they're just put on him. David is constantly trickling into his diaper, so it's not too long after a diaper change that he starts to get wet. I think he gets changed pretty much at regular times each day.
Christine	17	Jacob	17	If he smelled like poop and now he doesn't, but that's too obvious. I can tell he's wet by seeing a bulge on his front or rear. I can sometimes smell when he has peed his pants.

Provide more details on the things you notice that are different about the diapers your brother is wearing after he has been changed:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Patti & Cheryl	18+	Marc, D.J., Kevin, Cousins, Byron, & Timothy (ages 12-17)	14	There are no real differences in their diaper changes as everyone of the family all do their diaper changing all basically the same and do them very well.
Bryce	16	Andrew	13	Andrew wears Tena disposbles so its the same diaper, hard to tell how's changed him. After a change the diaper is thin, no yellow, and in good shape.
Amy	18+	David	14	he's dry right after a change. It doesn't take long before he wets, so if I check his diaper and it's dry, I know that he must have just been changed.
Christine	17	Jacob	17	They are thinner, clean and odor free.

Describe how you can tell that your brother's diaper change was performed by your mother:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Patti & Cheryl	18+	Marc, D.J., Kevin, Cousins, Byron, & Timothy (ages 12-17)	14	Can't always, as stated above, all of the family, all work at putting and placing the boys in diapers, so as to make sure they understand the meaning of their being in and wearing diapers. hard to tell
Amy	18+	David	14	I can't really tell any difference regardless whether Mom, or any of my sisters, or I have changed him. The quality of diaper changes is about the same.
Christine	17	Jacob	17	My mother's diaper changes end up with the diaper being tight, with a nice fit.

Describe how you can tell that your brother's diaper change was performed by your father:

Amy	18+	David	14	David's the only boy and he's the youngest - 2 strikes against him. Kelly is the oldest, then Renee, then me, and then Autumn. I can't really tell just by looking at David who the last person to change him was.

Describe how you can tell that your brother's diaper change was performed by another brother. Also indicate age of other brothers in relation to your age and your diapered brother's age:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Patti & Cheryl	18+	Marc, D.J., Kevin, Cousins, Byron, & Timothy (ages 12-17)	14	ever done as it is not ever allowed, no boy changes his brother, or other boys diapers...
Amy	18+	David	14	no brothers.

Describe how others can tell that your brother's diaper change was peformed by you:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Patti & Cheryl	18+	Marc, D.J., Kevin, Cousins, Byron, & Timothy (ages 12-17)	14	I can't except that I, know when I change my brother, the time etc. other wise as for the stile or perfection, as stated above we all strive to diaper our boys with diaper perfections staying with certain set standards.
Amy	18+	David	14	I don't think they can tell. We all have about the same diaper changing skills when it comes to changing David. Plus we're all pretty consistent - typically we use 2 disposables and 1 pair of plastic pants

Provide details on what makes it harder to tell who has changed your brother's diapers:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Patti & Cheryl	18+	Marc, D.J., Kevin, Cousins, Byron, & Timothy (ages 12-17)	14	All stated above.
Bryce	16	Andrew	13	Andrew wears disposables and there pretty much the same no matter who diapers him. Its always
Amy	18+	David	14	There's not much to diaper changing - just making sure his area is clean. Recently he's had diaper rash around his penis - I think that was related more to his persistent masturbating habits rather than improper diaper changes. We all powder him every time; we all are consistent with the number of disposables and plastic pants. And we're all consistent with letting him go around in just a diaper, especially around the house.
Christine	17	Jacob	17	He almost always wears pants over his diapers, so I can tell when he has been changed, but not often by whom.

Provide details on how you feel age, gender, experience, attitude, maturity, dexterity, visual acuity and other factors affect the appearance and quality of your brother's diaper changes:

Sister Name	Age	Brother Name	Age	Answer
Amy	18+	David	14	Diaper changing is a skill that is pretty easily mastered after a few changes. All of David's babysitters have pretty much mastered it. The youngest babysitter is Lindsay who is 14 - she lives across the street and babysits him after she gets home from school (David rides the short school bus - lol - and it arrives a little later. Other babysitters range in age between the teens and 20s. There are no boy babysitters for David so I can't really say anything about that. I just think experience is the biggest factor - but it's a skill that's quickly learned. The trickiest part to changing diapers is making sure he's clean and avoiding him wetting on you - we've all learned that the hard way but now I just know to keep a diaper almost covering his penis while we clean him just in case.
