I have never had children, I am 24. AND I have leaks, continuously. It used to only come when I sneezed/coughed/laughed/or if I would have to go, I would leak a little. But for the last 2 1/2 years it leaks all the time. I went to my Doctor and she told me to do Kiegel Exercises, and to try to stop the flow as another excercise mid stream.
She also sent me to get a ( I forget what it is called) but when u have a baby and they use the monitor to look at your stomach abdomen?
Well that is where I was sent, so they could look at my bladder and how it emptied. The technician found that I have gull stones. And that a very small amount of pee does not come out. When I went back to my Doctor, she told me that there was nothing wrong. Yet I still leaked.
Her and I believe it came from sitting/laying down all day, and not getting exercise. She told me to cut back on things such as Pop, Coffee, and Tea. BUT even when I did that, it still didn't matter, because I need a daily intake of water, and after drinking water I was still leaking.
I am sure there are different levels of incontinence, and different forms, Stress, Urge and mixed.

It's slowed up quite a bit now. I have been getting more exercise, and really try to not drink so much, including water. 
I still have leakage.
