[|Human|] My son is 6 years old and he poops on him self he says he cant feel when it comes out and at first I thought he was doing it on purpose or just being lazy I told him he wasnt allowed to play and I placed him on time out. It doesnt seem anything I do helps I bought him flushable wipes and go clean him. What can I do?
[|AI|]  IIN my opinion your child is suffering from a condition medically known as encopresis. Don't worries its not so uncommon in child Chat Doctor.  Giving time out and punishments can only aggravate the problem and leave your son more frustrated, angry, depressed and a child with low self-esteem. This problem usually arises due to lazy colons and poor sensations towards rectum fullness. This occurs when a child is chronically constipated and doesn't poop regularly. So I would suggest you to rule out painful bowel movement or constipation. And get it treated with the help of laxatives followed by stool softness along with a gastroenterologist advice.
