5. Both of my children have done this to me... I took the,"I've never
seen a Kindergartner in diapers" approach. I kept them in normal cotton (i.e. not very comfy when full of poop) underpants and had them come in the bathroom with me to clean out the poop and rinse out the pants. It worked in about a week. They basically didn't want to spend the time doing the cleanup chore with me when they could have been playing so they decided to give the toilet a chance.

Best of Luck. I feel for your wife. I was hysterical too. :hi:


***On that note: Many, many children are not potty trained until after four....no matter what their parents later say. My sister in law swears both her kids were trained before two, and I distinctly remember my beloved niece peeing on the floor of my van at age three and a half. Mom was trained to put the kid on the pot, not the other way around.
