The study was based on 55 children who were bed-wetters at ages 5 to 13 and 117 in the same age range who were not. Of the bed-wetters, 45 percent had been breast-fed, compared to 81 percent of those who were continent at night.

I submit that this is too small of a sample to be reliable. It also does not appear to eliminate other possible causes (genetic, enviromental, psychological) of bed-wetting.

Well, we have come full circle today. If the Palestinian children are wetting their beds, then perhaps someone should tell their mothers to breast feed them. First, however, they would have to unstrap those bombs.

It must be true. I haven't peed my bed since I got married.

I'm willing to give it a try. I mean, I haven't wet the bed in like 40 years, but why take unnecessary risks?
