They said that we should make sure that we went to the toilet during playtime and that we had no excuse to need to leave the classroom during a lesson. This meant that, in some classes, wettings could be quite frequent when someone had forgotten to go to the toilet before the bell rang for classes to resume. In my memory this seemed to happen much more frequently to girls than to boys - but it could be that those are just the ones I remember! Does anyone else have the same thought? I I was referring to English primary school (age 5 - 11 years) rather than secondary (11-18 years). I went to an all boys secondary and I'm fairly sure that no boy ever wet himself there. I wouldn't know what did or did not happen in girls' schools or co-ed schools. In my primary school, though, wetting accidents were fairly common and it did seem to be girls more often than boys. Maybe it was that girls were more careless about making sure they used the tolilets at playtime or maybe it was that they were less good at holding on when they had forgotten and were refused permission to "be excused" as we called it. I do remember that the girls' spare clothes were more varied than the boys'. Skirts and dresses of different colours and materials while the boys' spares were mainly grey shorts. I did sometimes wonder what the spare knickers were like but, of course, they were hidden! Quote Link to comment

I take it the girl in question was put in a nappy then? How did she find it? Quote Link to comment

All she would say about it later was that it was embarrassing and she wished she hadn't wore a miniskirt that day. nappypants 1 Quote Link to comment

Guest Despboy15 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 They never really had anything on standby for my schools, just a pair of pants in the lost and found at most. In preschool they had the option of bringing in a spare change of clothes in case, but it was not required. Once in kindergarten I wet myself because recess was right after lunch and of course I didn’t want to skip even a little bit of recess. The spare clothes were only for preschool, so I just got a pair of pants out of the lost and found. They were big on me so they gave me a belt too, but I didn’t know how to use belts so when I had to go again I spent ages tugging at it, but couldn’t get it off so I held it until I got home. From then on, there was really nothing. No guarantee of clothes so if you wet yourself you pretty much go home for the day. You can come back with changed clothes obviously, but do you really wanna come back and face all that humiliation? In middle school I went to a private school with uniforms, so those were the spares. They were very strict on bathroom usage so they got used pretty often. They restricted it the most around lunch time, which meant 100+ boys bursting in line for 1 toilet, despite there being many more. If you were caught sneaking in, they would send you to the back of the line. I remember seeing a few people, including myself, having an accident in that line. High school was pretty much the same except we got our uniforms from a private company rather than the school, so there were no spares that I know of. So if you had an accident, tough luck just go home. Quote Link to comment

If their parents weren't available they were usually sent home on their own but I believe there was a small of supply of girls clothes which were probably in case of period incidents. Obviously in secondary school teasing was more common however in my experience it was limited to a handful of people but it was more common for more of the year to have a laugh/joke about it with me. What was your experiences of it? Hmm, for me, I either changed myself, or my mom changed me after school Quote Link to comment
NocturnaI 25 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I have vague memories of accidents in school. I remember early on as a kid I was too lazy to get up and use the bathroom, resulting in a lot of accidents, even at home. And I remember going home from school a few times with a bag containing wet pants, and my mom getting mad at me every time. There was this one time, either in kindergarten or first grade, when I had an accident. I don't remember exactly how it happened, probably the usual me not wanting to go to the bathroom and wetting myself, but I remember sitting on the floor in the nurse's office waiting for new pants, while I was wetting myself for some reason. There was a literal puddle that I was sitting on, and for some reason I just decided to sit there and play with an apple. I even put the apple in the puddle at one point. Eventually I was given new clothes and I changed into them, but I still don't know why I sat on the ground wetting myself. Quote Link to comment
China Girl 835 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 The only accident at my school was a teacher (a really hot one too) messing her white skirt with diarrhea in the toilet queue...and I didn't see it. Not really jealous of anyone else though since there's nothing hot about children suffering. Wetsadaisical 1 Quote Link to comment

Hmm, while I didn't see too many accidents growing up, IRC, accidents were taken care of via like, taking the student to the infirmary, and their parents called to bring fresh clothes.

AnduinL 3 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I never had an accident in school, but it happened to some of my classmates - about equally boys and girls. We were a small school that didn’t have a full time nurse, but kids who had accidents were sent to the office (of the principal’s secretary), where they kept some spare clothes. One notable thing I remember is that on one occasion (in 1st grade), the teacher made the girl who wet herself clean up the puddle herself. I don’t have a clear recollection of how that was done on the other few occasions when someone wet themselves. Quote Link to comment
