3 year old peeing on everything
so i baby sit a 3 yr old boy... i dont know if there is something wrong with him ie: mental disability? but he pees his pants, and yes i understand children have accident, but its so much an accident when he pulls his pants down and pees on my carpet oir my childrens toys. or even worse his own brothers head.he says its cuz he has to go. i keep asking him if he needs to pee and he says no everytime them goes to the bathroom and pees his pants( to me this is no accident) my oldest son who is 5 does not care fir this child and he says its because he is handicap. so question 1: can kids sense a disability? question 2: why would he be doing this? he says he likes comeing here, and he like my kids, and his mom says her does not do this at home, but just found out recently that the other day, he did pee on the floor at home. the mom was blaming it on my kids at first being mean to him, but her has never said my kids are bothering him in anyway...
i am getting quite frusterated with another kid ruining my husbands and my hard earned things and my kids toys.

this room is a locked room. the door handlelock that u need a key to get is, he busted it open....... i have the room locked for that reason, because i have 3 kids myself
A two and a three year old should not ever be left unattended long enuff to be able to get into the laundry room and spill things. It could have been bleach. My neighbor had her little three year old grandaughter and she got out on the lanai and when my neighbor found her, she had fallen into the pool. Another situation in the news was where a mom was in walmart and let her kids play in the toy isle and walked away and was looking at something else. During that time a guy took her daughter into the bathroom and raped her. I think you should probably talk to Mom and tell her your thoughts about him having some issues, and let her find someone else to watch him. It sounds like it is not working for him or you at this point. Good luck and I hope his mom is receptive. Moms tend to be in denial sometimes on these things.
my oldest who is 5 is the same way, a perfet angel for others, butr at home totally difrent story, so i told the mom what had happend today and told her i wont be able to babysit him anymore and said sorry but i cant let him destroy my home. she seemed to understand and i did suggest looking into ODD and then she told me that his father was ODD as a child..... so now i am more than 100% sure he is ODD
Trust me, I know that feeling. At least with my son he seems to be very well behaved for others. It is just when he is at home that he wants to scream, yell, destroy things, etc. I am hoping we can get him on something that will calm him down but not make him a zombie. At this point though, even if he is a zombie, we probably have to do it to keep his brother and himself safe.
so my 2 year oldand this3 year old were downstairs playing, i didnt think anythin of , i went down to check on them, and my locked laundry rom door was wide oen with a brandnew gallon bottle of laundry detergent all over my floor. ok my kids have never went in my laundryroom, let alone play with my laundry stuff. my son cant unscrew a tight lid, he can hardley reach the door handle. now my kids are not perfect my anymeans, but i KNOW this is not doing of a 2yr old. i sked the 3 yr old if he did this and right away said yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG i am so mad, this kid is ruining my house, needless to say i will not be sittng this kid EVER again. there is something very wrong with him, and his parents will be payingfor my detergent oh and the $20 book he ripped apart today as well....
If you start the conversation by telling her that you are concerned about her son and that you want to do what you can to help him, she might be more open to what you say after that. Just let her know that you recently heard about this thing called ODD and ask if she is familiar with it. If not, have her Google it to see if she thinks it describes her son. Tell her that you think it may be what is causing some of his problems and that if he is diagnosed now, it would make things easier on her than waiting until he is older.
You could tell her that you know of someone whose child is a lot like her son and that that person is in the process of getting help for her son since finding out that he has ODD.
My son was diagnosed with the ODD and ADHD in June of last year. We have tried reward charts, etc. since then hoping that we would not need to medicate him. It is now to the point where my son is hitting, biting, etc. my four year old son and I feel like we have to do the medicine just to keep my four year old safe.
It is hard trying to tell parents that you think there is something wrong with their child, especially if they are the type of parent who thinks their child is perfect. Hopefully you can find the right words and the right opportunity to bring this up.

so i just went downstairs, to my locked laundry room, door wide open anda gallon of liquid detergent all over my basement floor. my kids never go in there let alone play with my laundry stuff. needless to say, i am done sitting this demon child. these parents willnever keep a babysitter unless they get their kid fixed
well i googled ODD and actually he des has other symptoms of it, tatrums, temper, argues, anoying, ect, but how do i bring it up to the mom without making it sound like im picking on her kid?
My three and a half year old son has ADHD and ODD. Before he was potty trained, he would take his diapers off and then pee or would play in his poo. We used duct tape on the diapers, put him in clothes that were hard to get off, etc. We put blanket sleepers on backwards and had buttons with loops to keep his arms at his belly. He still got out of it.
Now that he is potty trained, sometimes he will still just pee on the floor for no reason. ODD is all about being in control. It doesn't sound like he has other symptoms of this but I think his mom definitely needs to get him evaluated.

so the last 2 times he did it i did put diapers on him and be bawled for an hour about it and made him leave it on till him mom came. still des it. and his mom did tell me that the other day he did it at home. i really dont know how much moreattention i can give him? we color, do crafts, play, walks, parks ect every day.
If he is not doing it at home, then it is not a potty training issue. If it is only going on at your house, could it be an attention getter? I would tell Mom to bring the pamper pull ups and make sure while he is at your house he wears them with a onsie or something that is hard for him to pull down, then take him to the toilet every couple of hours. It would sure save the mess! You could also use a reward system for when he doesnt pee his pants to encourage the good behavior. It sounds like he knows he can control everyone with his actions and is taking advantage of the fact. The pamper pull ups will take away that control without yelling or bringing undo attention to it. Just a thought.
i mentioned bringing him in to get checked and all she could say is well he dont do it at my house so i dont know whats wrong with him..and i did tell her tha he does it one more time i wont be able to watch him anymore, my husband is pissed and told me no more at all the first time it happened, but me and my kindness cant just stop watching him withou notice to the parents, so pretty much gave them notice by telling her 1 more time and i cant.
I don't know about kids being able to sense a disability necessarily but I do think that they know what is considered 'normal' and that if someone is doing something that is not 'normal' they may look at that as a disability.
It sounds like this child may have ODD or something. If he were my child, I would have him evaluated by a developmental specialist. If the mom is not willing to have him evaluated or to work to end this behavior, I would probably let her know that she needs to find someone else to watch him.
