WHY THE F**K DID HE SH*T ON THE RUG?

[mmnjp03]

My step son is 6 1/2 and he shit on both my bathroom rugs!And I don't mean like watery diarrhea I mean thick clumps of crap! Then instead of telling me he tried to hid his underwear behind the toilet. He then puts his pajamas on like nothing happened??!!! I only found out because I told him to pick his dirty clothes up off the floor and I noticed he wasn't wearing any underwear. When I asked him why he did this he just looked at me. This his the second time he has done this to me! And it's always after I make him mad but his dad says he doesn't do it on purpose!! What the hell!!!!!!!! Thanks for listening I just needed to vent. Side-note he does not have any stomach problems and was not ill on either occasion.

Jun. 10, 2008 at 9:57 PM At 6 1/2, unless there is a physical problem, it is intentional.  Could be his way of lashing out at something beyond his control.  Hugs!

I agree with Gram12of15 -  I think its intentional. 

I had a nephew that use to do a little "poop" in his underwear and stuff them back in his underwear draw.  I would put clean clothes away, and smell poop!  He did it because he was nervous of school events.  We got to the bottom of it and helped him through it!

Good Luck!

Jun. 11, 2008 at 12:33 PM Oooh, girl!  That's terrible!  I think it's intentional and some kind of bad behavior problem!  His dad needs to address this with him.

Jun. 13, 2008 at 11:07 AM I agree...It's intentional. You poor woman ((HUG)). Dad needs to address it and do it now before it gets worse.

Hi there i just read your post about your stepson, and i have to ask does he live with you two or does he live with his mother? Maybe he just can't reach, have you tired to put a stool so he can reach. I also think that if you have talked to him about it and he still has continued then you and his dad need to sit with him and have dad address it to him but infront of you that way your stepson knows that both of you are aware of what he is doing.

   Are you and is mother on good speaking terms?  good luck and keep me posted.   ~~Varee~~

I agree that it is intentional and something definately needs to be done.  I, however, do not think it should be left up to just the dad .  I think you BOTH should talk about it first (without your son/step son present) and come up with a solution to the problem be it a time out or a grounding if he does it again or whatever you BOTH feel is appropriate.  Then you sit down with your son and talk to him about it, telling him that this behavior is NOT acceptable and will not be tolerated.  Stomach problems is not the issue, being a little brat and making a mess is.  Just because he is your step son does not mean you have no say in his up bringing.  When this child is in your home you are in charge.  I am a divorced mother (no step children of my own) who supports my ex's new wife 100% when it comes to how she diciplines my 2 boys when they are in her home!  I would also suggest talking to his bio mom and find out if this is something he has done to her.  Maybe you three (or 4?) can come up with a solution together.  I would also suggest including your son in the decision of how to handle this, what does he feel is a fair punishment for this behavior.  He may surprise you with his answer, I know my kids do..lol!!!!  Good luck and God bless!
