Hi.
I was reading in the sections about diapers and analysing the commentaries about the american diapers and the european ones, even being of the same brand (Tena, for example) and I was quite surprised and shocked to know for the members experience that the american ones are of an awful absorption compared with those made in Europe. In the topic name I said n. America or just US because I also see that the canadian members aren´t so disappointed with their products as the United States members, that´s why I remarked to know if the difference was just in USA. Here in Europe I can swear that from Spain to Finland and all the countries between, if you buy a Tena (plus super or maxi) it´s the same absorption in every country you purchase, and depending of your needs you can have very good ones (as I said in a post about the tena maxis when I worked in France I could wear one for more than 15 hours without any leaking and even if I went drinking beers with my workmates, here I use super cause the maxi isn´t rembursed by the national inssurance but super even not being the top quality ones are good enough for 8 hours use and even for night). So I asked myself "what´s the matter there?" Because I consider an issue the impossiblity of having a good protection for the unique reason that the market can´t supply it to you!! And specially in United States that I think is the main "capitalism" country with all the economy rules of offer demand competence etc. it´s something that I just can´t understand! Could you explain to me if my suppositions are right and which you think are the reasons of that nasty situation? I´d be quite decieved if being american I´d have to buy my diapers online to europe because those I can buy in my country aren´t just good enough for my needs!! I really thank your attention and more if somebody can make me understand such situation.
Salutations to all of you and I wish you enjoy this weekend!!! Ciaoo

Why even bother with Tena disposables here? For USA folks, Lots of better options such as Dry 24/7, Abena, Molicare, Tranquility, Also booster pads,
waterproof coverings...product selection is varied and complete, not just one product. I've seen Tena, but no one appears too concerned about
buying them and are not offered on the shelf for long. It's a just another average competitor from my experiences and I opt for the better available
products.
I detect that you are reaching to imagine some odd perceptions of life here in this 'evil' capitalist empire. Doesn't seem to strike me that way...or many
others and we even live here. But, believe what you wish. We just don't labor under the same conflicts or concerns.
All in all, I think you have constructed this 'nasty situation' in your own mind or have been subjected to some anti-USA agenda...because it just doesn't seem that way to us right here.
Hello!
I was reading old posts and found this one, where I just asked for things I felt curious about or Simply I ignored, now I know that even if tenas are worse in the states than in Europe you have a lot more of options to choose and some of them very good, at the level of tena or even higher. But I clearly remember The answer I received from John1050, plus another form wetters thanking him and then encouraging his behaviour as if it where wpderful to misunderstand people, tell words you haven´t, and finlly accusing you of being a hybrid of dumb-alienated brain fanatic anti american. I explained myself repeatedly and specially asked him to tell me why he treated me that way, but everything was in vane cause he didn´t had the interest, the honour or just if so sure of being right the desition to answer and ensure his position. A couple of years later, I continue very active in the forum so as he does but not a single word to try to repair or to explain. So characters start to be clear I think, and we begin to see who´s ready to despise someone on manipulated posts and disappear (as Bible says "throw the stone and hide the hand)

. Do you have something to say John1050 about what I´m saying now? Because I begged you to dialogue, but you just answered with silence, 2 meanings: !/ you don´t give a shit about you say or the consequences o your actions or 2/ you prefered to shut up cause you saw I were unfairly treated and you couldn´t explain?

Cause if you were sure You´d had answered. And I just asked for dialogue, not for an apologie from you (even if I felt insulted and offended by you, but Talking it´s the way to clarify misunderstandings and you even denied me that). We´re both users of the site and incontinents and I don´t want enemies nowhere, would you be so kind of answering now? I hope so and expect it also. If not, everybody can read and form it´s opinion, but even in a language that´s not my first I think I explain ok my thoughts and opinions. And if someone take me as a fanatic, it´s because he is one. Because before spanish I´m citizen of the world and besides I admire a lot of things of USA. And there I just commented the difference between health insurances and in an objective look (if somebody is interested everything is in this same topic).
Apart, I´m very happy of this site, and how comprehensive and empatic are it´s users (ALL OF YOU) or almost every user i´ve read or have replied to me or to others I saw and proud that thanks to it we support ourselves the way we do. Thank you!
Hope you had a good christmas and you enjoy also the entry to 2017. If you have ideas to my topic of diapers in Japan in buying diapers internationally I´ll thank them a lot. REGARDS!!

PS: Thanks to this thing I remembered a sentence my beloved grandma used to say: "The ignorance is very bold and shameful"

and I think it´s very true. And I don´t want to polemize, just to solve a problem that remained unfinished (not for lack of trying) but I did remember and I´d like to bury it definitely. It´s up to you john. Just want you reveal me why you did that and explain it if you can. thanks
