Regression in toilet training in my 1st grade sone
My only child (son) did fine through his 1st grade school yr. with toilet
habits until early March when I also went back to work full-time. I had worked part-time prior to that, but from home. I drop off my son at school in the morning and my husband picks him up from school. My son has behaved pretty much as if this new situation is a non-issue, since it began. Other factors that may be at play are occasional, unruly but harmless behavior by his peers when they are all in the bathroom at once, AND one time when one older boy accidently walked in on my son when he was in the stall using the toilet. According to my son, though, once the boy peeked in and saw that someone was in there, he just ducked out, and this happened just the one time. My son's teacher is a wonderful woman. When she tells me that she allows my son to go to the bathroom WHENEVER he asks, I believe her. First, my son only had "accidents" during school time, not at home. Then the problem grew to occasional home accidents. He has seen our pediatrician who prescribed a stool softener last Friday, thinking this will help my son "go," when he chooses to make the trip to the toilet. We give him the med. at 6pm each night. Three days ago, we resorted to sending him to school in pull-ups. We told him it was not punishment, just what we need to do now, because we can't expect our (caring, patient) school staff to keep cleaning BM accidents from underwear. He did not want to wear the pull-ups but he's been pretty compliant about it. We have tried using various reward systems, and this obviously has not helped. Suggestions, anyone???? Thanks. --Mary |
