Wets himself when annoyed - how to handle

DS has been toilet trained for 7 months. He's almost three.

This week he has taken to wetting himself instead of having a tantrum when told no. Eg He wanted to watch cbeebies I said no you've done enough tv for this morning and you've got lots of other things to do. He said not fair and deliberately wet himself. It's is not the first time.

What's the best way to manage this response? He dosent respond to start charts or rewards.

Help please

I would guess just ignoring it, as in not getting cross and just very neutrally getting him changed. I think if he sees that it winds you up he'll keep doing it. I would try not commenting at all, sticking to your guns about whatever he got annoyed about in the first place and hopefully he'll get bored of that tactic!

As long as he's very well established in his toliet training and your confident this is on purpose; i'd treat it as any other unwanted behaviour; time out, removal of toy etc. if you ignore other bad behaviour and this works, then ignore again. I find ignoring very difficult and in effective with my lo. I'd disapline as you would for any other bad behaviour. X
