DS is 4y5m. He was late-ish to potty train but has been trained for a long time now - maybe 9months or a year? We are well past the stage where I remind him to go to the toilet, or take out spare clothes - just don't think to do it.
and yet recently e has started having the odd accidnet again, with about 3 in the last week - whihc is just ridiculous. They all seem to be caused by him just leaving it until the last minute before bothering to take himself off to the toilet.
I hvae never pnished him or told him off for acidents, but now his attitude seems to be "sorry mummy" and back to his playing, and what I say about thinking abot whether he needs a wee or not leavng it until the last minute seem to go in one ear and out the other.
He has started school recently though - all seems fie but I wonder whether it is linked. I don't want to punish him , I just want him to see this as an actual problem - which he doesn't/
