My 8 year old is refusing to poo and it's making me worried now. He's had everything to make him go but he still refuses. I don't want to make him have runny stools because of school at this age.

Sounds like a little tear has occurred near the bottom and it is too painful to poo. I would suggest a trip to the GP for advice and medication. Hope things settle soon.
