Facination with peeing - HELP

Hi
Im am quite embarrassed to be posting about this, but am hoping some of you will have some advice. I have a 14 year old daughter that has recently (over the past 6 mnths or so) developed a fasination with peeing. I was hoping it was just a phase but im not sure that it is.

I have picked up on a few of these incidents:
She had some friends over for a sleepover and they where in her room and I heard them saying no you cant go to the toilet we have to see who can hold on for the longest. A few hours latter I took them in some food and I could tell 1 girls was desperate to pee, I listened at the door for a while and they where saying no one can you ahve to pee your pants - they didnt come out all night and must have all wet there pants.

I have also seen my daughter peeing in a bucket or container in her room...she will also hold till she cant anymore and pee her pants in her room. I have also seen her and her friend pee in there bikinis out on the lawn, they dont just pee they seem to wait until they are bursting and challenge each other to hold on for longer.

I recently found a note she had written to one of her friends saying Dont go to the bathroom all afternoon then we can pee our pants after school.

I dont know whether to talk to her about this as she is obviously trying to keep it a secret but more and more knickers and pants smelling of urine are appearing in the laundry and even though she doesnt think so I am aware of what is going on.

Any advice would be really welcomed
Cheers

Well, I haven't heard anything about this on the board before

My first thought is she is setting herself up big time for urinary infections by holding back like that and that medical issue alone warrants a talk. Heck, the laundry warrants a talk!

I see no reason to keep it private so find out what's up

The only connection I can make is with the astronaut lady who tracked down the 'other woman' non stop while wearing some astronaut diaper. It caused quite the stir-people seemed more interested in the diaper than the fact she was planning to kill someone. I guess I can see that spurring some 'wonder what it feels like' interest but no idea why it would last and become a group activitiy

Wow...I've never heard of that, either. If I were you I'd talk to your DD right away and make sure behavior stops. As OP mentioned, it's a perfect setup for UTIs. Sounds like it's a power trip for the bossy girls telling the others they cannot pee. Just plain weird!

Well, I've heard of it on this board, and if I recall correctly, it was a prank post.

Assuming that this is a legit post, I can offer the following:

There is a sexual fetish that involves urine play. It is called "water sports." I have never heard of this with girls that young. If the original poster supplies more information, I will consult with the therapists I know at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. They would know about this if anyone did.
