Can finish now dd isn't fighting me.
It's happened most of this week. Yesterday we were at sports & I packed an extra pair of pants & wipes coz I knew there was a good chance of it.
We stopped at a road house before hand & he needed to go, but just couldn't, or wouldn't, i don't know.
I decided to not push it & showed him where the toilets are. They were about 5 metres from where we were playing/sitting, but he still went in his pants while off playing with the boys. And didn't tell me, even though I asked.
Last night I sat him down & talked to him about it. He says even at home he's scared to go to the toilet & that even when I take him I always have to go if someone else needs me. I promised that from now on I would tell them to wait & stay with him. Tonight he went, then went back & actually did it. Then wiped.
I made a big deal & told him I was proud etc etc. I hope this isn't a one off... For both our sakes.
Maybe it's to do with moving? We've been in this house about 5 weeks. Maybe he just needs to settle in? But the being scared started when we got home from over east in February... That was after seeing his dad.
This is so hard. I know I've done the right thing, but I feel like its not ATM.
