Toilet issues

My 6 year old son will not go to the toilet on his own. Despite encouragement he insists on somebody pulling his trousers down and “aiming” for him. There is no physical reason why he cannot do this. Does anybody else have a similar problem and any suggestions / tips to help make him more independent in this respect?

  • Hello my son had issues with toileting but it was more touching and smearing!! Our occupational therapist made him a velcro chart with pix to attach in the right order of doing things with a booklet with his name through it all about the loo and the right things to do. this eventually worked with a sticker chart as a reward. good luck
