My mom and I were hanging out last night as we do a lot. We were having a big talk about a bunch of things and when we’re doing our “real talks” it’s when I feel a bit more comfortable about mentioning diapers and such. At once point she mentioned that she had 3 kids at one point in diapers then I joked “Now you only have one” and she thought it was super funny
We talked about diaper prices for a while and she knows how much they help me mentally so now I feel more comfortable in general talking to her about me buying more diapers (I don’t have a job or even my own bank account so she’d have to buy them for me unless I have an amazon gift card)
Well, it’s never bee just for pleasure for me, but that does come up from time to time - but with IC issues my whole life, was never out of diapers.
Odd part - in general I am an extremely private person, sometimes to the point privacy advocates don’t understand why it’s so important to me! BUT for some reason the fact of others knowing I am in diapers never really bothered me! Who known - could it just be going through school in diapers no real way to keep it private (specially in the lower grades) so forget trying - but leading to privacy on everything else being a much bigger deal to me than most other people?
I think it’s really nice that you can talk to your mom like that. It’s always great when you can talk to your parents about everything. Also it’s pretty cool that your mom buys your diapers!
My mom is the same way. I can talk to my mom about anything and she would keep real. But I never did have the courage when I was a kid to talk to her about diapers and that still remains my secret as an adult from her. I know if I would talk to her about it now that she wouldn’t say anything bad or wouldn’t care as long as it would please me or make me happy. But now in my age and stage in life I have no reason to tell her.
I wish my mom were that cool. She knows I wear for IBS but hates that I wet them voluntarily. The only time it’s a real issue is when we travel together and she finds my wet diapers in the trash.
I never had a conservation with my parents about diapers. My parents died in 2019, so I now live with my girlfriend who is helpful with my diapers. In fact, she prefers me to keep my diapers visible when home, with no pants to be worn at home
