[QUOTE="mommabear34, post: 705663, member: 21243"] Hello all, my son was diagnosed at age 3 with autism and last year with adhd. He has always been difficult to toilet but has been using the toilet during the day with no accidents for over a year now. A[B]t night he still continues to refuse to pee in the toilet[/B]. [B] He does have control of his bladder[/B]. I know this because I check him through out the night and four times so far this week he has been dry when I wake him up to pee but refuses to use the toilet. I ask him if he needs to and he says no. I take him to the bathroom anyway and instead of peeing in the toilet he will pee in his pants in front of the toilet. [B]Twice, with an hour of prompting from both his dad and I he did use the toilet at night, but then peed in his pants [U]in front[/U] of the toilet[/B] in the morning. During the day he is uncomfortable using the toilet in other places so if it is possible he will hold both pee and bm's as long as possible until he is at home where he is comfortable. I am so frustrated at this point I just do not know what to do. I've tried taking toys away, giving him lots of praise and rewarding him for good behaviour... so far nothing seems to be working. He is an extremely willful child, very intelligent and thankfully now verbal and says it is not important for him and wants me to give him his diapers back. Does anyone have any ideas on what may help with this situation? [/QUOTE]
