Has anyone else had any experience of this and what did they do. It is driving me seriously mad and I'm worried that it will make him ill. He will hold onto his wee, refusing to go to the loo, furiously claiming that he doesn't need to go when he so obviously does. I don't think I would mind so much if it didn't change his behaviour so much. he doesn't just dance around, holding onto his willy but he becomes aggressive, overly boisterous, can't sit still and downright annoying. He always ends up going and never wets himself but it always at the last minute in a fit of desperation. We have tried ignoring it, getting cross with him. talking to him about how uncomfortable it must be and how he will make himself ill. I worry about the affect it will have on his bladder if it continues. It can't be doing him any good. I'm trying to avoid it becoming a power battle but it is driving me (and dh) barmy. Anyone any suggestions?
