Guest guest Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 OK, guys, I’m stumped. Logan is 9 ½ and has been trained for a long time now, struggling a lot not to have accidents. Now, we have run into a problem that he just doesn’t care. He will have an accident at school and not tell anyone. Two days ago, he sat in a BM for an hour (they kept thinking it was other kids). He will go when asked if he needs to and answer yes or no appropriately, but no longer seeks out adults at school to tell them he needs to use the toilet. The teacher and I have instituted some new rules where if he has an accident at school, he cannot use the computer at school and cannot watch TV at home. Any other ideas? Does this ever end????

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 I agree that going back to timed toileting will refresh the lesson. But also think about diet changes?? medication changes??, or just the cold weather can affect some children. I would forget the negative consequences and work on positive consequences. Praise, star, works well. On Wed, Dec 3, 2008 at 9:57 AM, Wetter Grundulis < jenniferwetter@...> wrote: > Maybe it's time to take a step back in toileting. Get him back on a > schedule.
