He es five in June, has dwarfism and is developmentally delayed. We have been doing toilet training for months and months. He will go for wees on the toilet but only if prompted and then often under protest. He will only poo in a pull up, but again I have to look out for the signs or he will poo into his pants. He will never ever ask to go, never. At school he wears pants and stays dry, with one wee at lunchtime when prompted by the TA.
I can just see no progress at all at home and am inclined to leave it alone again for a bit, hoping that eventually he himself will prefer pants. For school I would leave things as they are. I just don't see a way forward at the moment and get so fed up changing wet clothes all the time, and cleaning up carpets and floors.
