Need Suggestions To Improve Activities In Children
my 8 year old son keeps soiling himself at night an during the day, like he has just now and its never very badly its like as if its out of laziness he has told me he holds it in because he wants to keep playing, but not only is he doing this hes going to scratch his bum an getting it on his hands and knowingly whipping it on the first thing he sees like his bed post at night his desk its ridiculous and I've spoken to him about it over and over and seem to be getting nowhere. before all this he was very capable of going the toilet with no problems and cleaning his bum very well
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Your son might be having a behavioral problem related soiling which normally is known as encopresis. Encopresis also known as paradoxical diarrhea is voluntary or involuntary fecal soiling in children who have usually already been toilet trained. Persons with encopresis often leak stool into their undergarments. Strict behavioral alteration therapy is what your son requires. Make sure you are a bit more strict. Schedule sitting times, typically after meals. Adhere to them strictly.
Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition.
Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
