[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. He says he felt like doing it. He pees in the woods all the time. And I never thought it was an issue as long as others don't see it. We tell him when it's not appropriate. Now with this new development of urinating in the house I see there is something going on. Things are kind of tumultuous at home - a new baby a year ago, arguing with DH. We understand now that we really have to fix whatever needs to be fixed between us. He is very articulate and social. Loves his school and friends. We shower him with attention, read and sing for him every night. [/quote] 1. Talk to your pediatrician to rule out a medical reason. 2. Please schedule an appointment with a developmental pediatrician b/c this behavior may have a root cause that he cannot articulate and not a reflection of you as parents. However, if he has this kind of repeated impulse control at 5, it probably not get easier for him as he gets older. [/quote]
