6 year old daughter has been potty trained for over 2 years. within the past 6 months has started wetting the bed now almost evernight. is also urinating on floor in bedroom. she gets attention, she is not acting out. what else could cause this?

ANSWER:
 
it may be not unusual for many parents to face this situation, although some kids may urinate till 7 years like this. But definiitely this is a cause of concern as itmay be a result of infection, emotional / anxiety related evenet, fear or sweet diet.
There may be many other reasosn but these seem to be common.
visit your pediatrician who can help you ruling out all of these and will guide to a child psychologist who may help you train your child through counselling or other techniques.
