Jonah is almost 3 years of age. His parents have had some success getting him to go "pee pee" and "poopy" on the potty when he is awake, but he has not yet learned to recognize his bladder's signals when he is asleep and frequently wakes up with a wet diaper and wet sheets. Propose the diagnosis for Jonah.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Eliminator disorder is a disorder in which a person passes off stool or urine place other then the toilet. Enuresis is a eliminator disorder in which a person specially a child below the age of 12 years passes off urine other then toilet due to lack of bladder control. This occurs at night typically can be seen in bed-wetting. This is the most common type of eliminator disorder.

Jonah's bedwetting in the night is perfectly normal for a boy of his age and there is no need to diagnose or treat him with this elimination disorder.
