I don't understand how you ensure it happens in the morning.  My kid poops daily, usually right before bed.  How do you make it be in the morning?? I don't think the time of day has anything to do with how much fiber is in your diet...[/quote]

As I said before, I am an immigrant. In my country, you made sure that you pooped, showered, dressed, ate breakfast, hydrated etc. before you left home.   You can absolutely train your kids to poop in the morning by making them sit on their toilet seat  first thing in the morning when they wake up.  I used to wake my kids up with a glass of warm milk and make them sit on the potty. The milk triggered their need to poop.  Obviously, someone had to sit with them when they are little until they actually pooped, but they get trained very quickly.  Most people go to poop in the morning after 10-15 minutes of being up and about, so you can use that time to teach them to make their beds. Also, having a daily morning beverage - milk, coffee, tea triggers your need to go.

Your kid also has a schedule. They are pooping regularly but at night.   Most people with healthy  gut will poop twice.  Try giving them prune juice at night to see if that triggers the need to poop in the morning. It is training, gut bacteria, food habits etc.  It is a life long healthy habit.

If you were my mother, I sure wouldn't tell you if I was pooping at any other time.

In our country, we also make sure we are clean and dressed and have eaten in the morning.  The part that has people scratching their heads is trying to control when your kid poops.  That is just damn weird.[/quote]
I am an immigrant too, and yes, we were trained as kids to poop in the morning. It's healthy to lose toxins from the previous day and start a day fresh and clean,
