ABSTRACT
A sample of thirty-five parents and their children was taken. The parents were classified into two groups; group I consisted of parents of ten normal children and group II included parents of twenty-five children suffering from primary nocturnal enuresis [PNE children]. All parents and their children were subjected to family interviews, clinical examinations, the Parents Attitudes Criterion Collective Implication Test-to analyze the parents behavior towards their children and the Moving Family Test-to analyze the role of each member in the family in addition to family therapy. The percentage of normal children experiencing family tension was significantly lower [20%]. The Parents Attitudes Criterion Collective Test and the Moving Family Test did not reveal any statistically significant results when comparing both groups. By applying family therapy as a method of treatment, it was found that after three months a marked improvement took place among PNE children. The response improved further after an additional three months of family therapy with seventy five% of the children completely healed

Blood culture, complete blood count [CBC] were performed to both groups. It was found that total leucocytic count [TLC], immature to mature neutrophil ratio [I/M] with CRP were simple reliable and rapid tests for early detection of neonates with infection
