10 Year Old Son Pees on the Floor During Bowel Movements.

I wouldn't go to the effort to accommodate him on this one at all. He is 10 years old and definitely old enough to figure it out. I say be firm and be a mom. Take away his favorite priveledge, figure out what really means something to him. Does he play a sport or like video games. Find something big and stick to it. And definitely make him clean it up, every time! Suggest he lean forward when he goes too, that should rotate his body so that it points down if he's not willing to touch it. Any chance dad or big brother would actually sit and show him?

Having two boys myself, I know how lazy they can be. At 4 my one twin was potty trained and the other not, at least not to a point where I could trust him and it was simply because he was lazy and didn't care. So I had to figure out what he did care about. Turned out, it was his toys. And I offered him a choice, toys or diapers. He picked toys and didn't have another accident!

I used a potty top made just for little boys and I had my son sit to go potty until he could better control the whole thing. It really helped. MR

I agree with getting a splash guard of some sort. You might also look at the seats made for old folks to see if they have an adapter of some sort. I don't even know if they make such a thing otherwise maybe see a counselor I know you said he doesn't have special needs but maybe it is something psychological when he has a bm that he pees. Good Luck

This is somewhat of a new one to me as well. My middle son also disrobed prior to his BM's and it lasted a couple of years, maybe 6-9 or 7-10 y.o. My only suggestion is to see if you can place some type of "splash guard" on your toilet seat (like the ones on potty training toilet seats). I don't know if it would be too small for him, but they have those seats that you put on top of your regular seat so that a toddler doesn't feel like he's falling in. Good Luck!

If this has happened every day for the last 2 years and he is distressed about it and get punished and it still doesn't stop I really feel like your doctor may have missed something.

Actually i was joking about this very topic the other day with adult friends! How on Earth do men PREVENT themselves letting it all go at once? Think about it.
As a woman. We sit down and whatever waste is available comes out ... I certainly don't choose between the two!
Men have to, it would seem.

If he needs to pee then sit he males a mess?
if he needs to sit then pee he makes a mess!

Have the doctor test him more and BTW test his pelvic floor muscles too (or you do it with him stopping streams of urine). It might show lack of control he can learn.

Good luck!
