you should encourage your son to go. bed-wetting shouldn't stop him from having fun with his friends. i usually talk to the other mom and ask her to help my daughter put on her pull-up discretely when the other kids have fallen asleep. pro-tip: pack a comfy onesie for you son, if he has one. less chance of a diaper or pull-up peaking out from under the pjs. my daughter has a pokemon one that she loves. no chance that anyone notices anything under that one.
