[quote=Anonymous]It seems like you’ve got your answer at this point in time. If you are certain it is behavioral, then you need to work on this behavior with her. If you’re concerned about the dribbles/damp pants, then you could look into some form of protection (i.e padded underwear, Sposie Dribbles, pull ups, or whatever you feel would work best). Honestly, I think there needs to be some accountability (actions and consequences). She’s 8 and old enough to be held accountable. You are taking on all the responsibility…meaning that she’s not dealing with any consequence (this doesn’t have to be punitive) to hold her accountable. Stop reminding her (she’s 8 not 3…she knows when she needs to go), she needs to clean herself up, etc. I work with 7-11 year olds and can tell you that I’d support my students no matter what they needed. However, I can also tell you that they would be mortified if this were happening to them. [/quote]
