Hello, my son who will be 4 in four months seems to have developed a potty problem. He is potty trained, he sleepsCentral sleep apnea Drowsiness Insomnia concerns Irregular sleep Irregular sleep-wake syndrome Isolated sleep paralysis Narcolepsy Night terror Obstructive sleep apnea Polysomnography Sleep through the night without an accident, and doesnt have accidents at all during the day. He potty trained fairly well, although he had trouble going poop on the toilet in the beginning and used to hold it and have accidents in his underwear, but that hasnt happened in a long time. He is our middle childChild neglect and psychological abuse Child safety seats Child tylenol cold multi-symptom plus cough School age child development, he has an older brother of 6 and younger sister who is 1. He is very sweet and listens for the most part, however the reason I am posting is because he seems to have developed a peculiar problem while going pee. He wants us to be in there with him while he goes, and watch him pee, and he'll stand over the toilet forever squirming about. He becomes EXTREMELY tempermental when he's in the bathroom. For example, he went in there to go and called me in, I went in and watched him pee, then he was just standing there as always after he pees and I started to keep myself busy putting towels away, he became very upset almost instantly because I wasnt watching him, and I said "I'm watching, I'm watching!" Thats how we have to act with him in the bathroom, its like walking on eggshells with him in there. The other day he was extremely upset that his bubbles all went away, one time I flushed the toiled for him because he was taking too long and that threw him into an hour long temperTemper tantrumstantrumTemper tantrums, another time I didnt put the toilet paper in the toilet "correctly" and that threw him into another tantrumTemper tantrums. He seems to get set off immediately, and responds by throwing tantrumsTemper tantrums and throwing toys and hitting things. I put him in his room and try to talk to him quietly, but it doesnt help, he wont talk to me about any of it. I hate the negative attentionAttention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) that this behaviorAutistic behavior Behavior - unusual or strange Bulimia Hyperactivity Suicide and suicidal behavior Temper tantrums of his is generating from us, but I dont know what to do. He even wakes us up in the morning when he gets up (about 6AM) and calls us into the bathroom to watch him pee. Please, has anyone been through this before, and if you have, how did you resolve it peacefully?
