How can one tackle a child passing stools in the pant?

Hi, My step son is 7 years old. And for the past year and 1/2 he has been pooping in his pants. We have tried to talk to him to see if there is something going on at his house but he always says no. It's not only once a day he does it 2-3 time a day whenever he have him on the weekends. What can I do to help?

Hello,First, is to talk to him about this..there may be some event that happened in past and has started it altogether.Second, you can make him wash the spoiled clothes whwnecver thsi happens. you dont have to scold or use harsh voice or words but simply say that - "as you have spoiled them and i have several ither works to look into can you please wash them yourself". Do this each and every time he spolis the clothes asking him very gently to wakh them. Let him wash as he can and if you want you may rewash them proeprly. after few days you will surely notice that he will hesistate spoiling his pants and make telk you beforehand that r wants to go to toilet.Try doing this after telling all family memebers about the plan.wish you good luck.Dr. Manisha GopalMD Neuropsychiatry
