Hi! My ds (5 years old) has an ongoing problem with toileting. Been seen by an OT, nurse, doctor but no real advice so there's not a diagnosed "condition" but he just goes through phases of wetting and soiling daily. He did this at the start of Reception but settled down after half a term, had a two week wobble mid year but has been fine. Until a teacher apparently shouted at the group that my ds was in telling them that asking to go to the toilet was "ridiculous" so he wet himself instead. This seems to have triggered a downward spiral and he's now wetting and soiling daily again. Today he got sent home from school for soiling then wetting. Dp collected him but I'm just wondering if they can keep sending him home for this? I'm panicking really as dp can accommodate this to a certain extent but I really really can't just take off from work, as a one off maybe but not regularly. So, where do I stand? Can they insist that he goes home every time he wets or soils? Thanks!
