Well my older brother was a bed wetter too, till I think 16 to 17. Also my older sister was till 16. I think you should maybe take her to a doctor or some kind of professional that will actually sit down with her and have a little talk. Usually kids cant control it which is the reason they wet the bed at night, but from what I've seen they seem to just get lazy and end up thinking its ok even after they can control it. I still don't think its a reason to get angry though, just try to deal with it where theres no hurt feelings, and don't make her feel bad for it. The way my brother stoped, was when my mom took him to see a specialist to find out what the problem was, and even though this sounds unprofessional I really think it was just to help him, and it did. She set down with him and asked him why he wet the bed, how often(every night) and so on. Then she just acted so shocked, "Your 16 and your wetting the bed? I just don't know, I find that so strange. I've never seen a child at your age still wetting the bed. I don't mean to offend you but I am really shocked by this."
She said it very calm, and I think he realized it was time to make a change. He never wet the bed again! From what it sounds like to me, your daughter can control her bladder, but if you do think for any reason she can't, don't force her to stop, because that will just cause stress on her, and really hurt her feelings.
