You've had three accidents in the past two weeks, sweetheart. I know it's embarrassing for you, and I'm not mad, I promise. But I’m tired of washing sheets every other day, and honestly, waking up wet is probably just as uncomfortable for you. So I bought something that might help us both get better rest. It’s just a diaper, they're soft, absorbent, and really discreet under pajamas. You won’t even notice it once you’re asleep. I want you to know this doesn't change how I see you. If anything, it shows how much I care about making sure we're both comfortable. So let's give it a try tonight, for both our sakes, okay? But to be clear, this isn't up for debate. The diapers are staying. I've already put a fresh one on the nightstand for you, and you're going to wear it to bed. I'm not asking; this is what we're doing from now on until you can manage to keep the bed dry. That said, I do understand this is hard for your pride. It’s okay to feel that way, but your feelings don’t change the reality: our mattress is stained, I’m exhausted from cleaning up after you, and frankly, it's starting to feel disrespectful that you expect me to just tolerate this without taking steps to fix it. I still love you, and I’m doing this because I care about us. But caring also means being practical. So go ahead, put it on. Let me help if you need me to. We can make this as easy or as difficult as you choose.
