[QUOTE="Betty B, post: 672271, member: 17641"] SS now 16 came to live with me when he was 12. He has always had severe encopresis. Poops his pants, no hygiene, in severe denial. (all of which is normal for kids with enco) At 15 his dad FINALLY took him to the hospital. He spent 3 days there where they "cleaned" him out. They couldn't remove it all by going inside while he was under anesthesia, so they had to put him on an IV with medicine to force bowel movements. Again -- it took THREE days. Afterward, he was doing pretty good. Drinking lots of water. Staying away from sugary drinks, etc. As of late, I've been noticing "that smell". I brought it up to my husband that I've been seeing the signs -- specs in the tub, on the bathroom floor, in his room. Dad ignores it. Tonite I couldn't help myself. I went into SS's room and went into his wash. OMG. Undies in there completely filled with poop. It's back to the way it was before. He's completely regressed. I don't think I can handle another few years of daddy and son ignoring this freaking issue. What can I do? And beyond what can I do, what is WRONG with this teen? [/QUOTE]
