[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Supervise him better, have him got to the toilet every hour, give consequences.  Also take him to a urologist to rule out anything medical.  [/quote]

All of this.  I might even set 30 minute timers for bathroom visits.

Do not trade one problem for another by getting him to go outside.

OP here. We are trying our best, but he's so fast. In less than a minute, he ran upstairs and peed. I ran after him and saw him pulling his pants up. If I was a second late I wouldn't have known. Unless I handcuff him to me or put him in a cage I can't supervise him every single minute. I need to use the bathroom myself or take a shower. On reddit most of the parents say stuff like, "Kids do weird sh**" they are impulsive and when an idea pops in their head they are impulsive.

Kids don't do stuff like this except for a good reason.  You need to tell him until the behavior stops, he will always be in a room with you and Dad and put up hard to open baby gates and lock off rooms he shouldn't be in like yours.

Get him a full medical evaluation, take him to the bathroom every hour (or more frequently), give a time out or loss of privilege like electronics each and every time and get a carpet cleaning machine and make him help clean it up.[/quote]

Yes. OP, if you've ever potty-trained a dog, this is the same thing. People leash the puppy inside and bring it with them everywhere in the house, so that at the slightest sign of wanting to go, they run out of the house and the puppy pees outside and starts understanding that outside is it happens. Your kid is smart but impulsive, so it shouldn't take weeks, maybe just one weekend day of being forced to follow you everywhere you go and reminded every hour that he needs to pee INSIDE the bloody toilet bowl!!! It won't be fun for him, so he'll start to get it. Also he has to help scrub his carpet spots and made to smell how awful they are: "You've been scrubbing a long time now. Did the smell go away?" :-)
