Okay, we have reached another bad patch.
The previous post about J and his constant weeing anywhere and everywhere, has become out of control.
Yesterday, in a playground, J was playing okay, and then when I take my eyes off of him for ten seconds, I hear a commotion.
J had wee'd over a little girls skirt. On purpose.
What the heck do I do first?
He wasn't wearing his 'Autism' tee shirt and so the parents were out for blood.
I managed to calm the situation, but, he wee'd on her. That's just awful. The poor girl, aged around 5, was just in shock I think. I offered to give them money to replace her clothes, but they were angry, and I could tell the father was restraining his temper, otherwise I am certain he would have become quite aggressive.
I felt so humiliated. Embarrassed. Upset.
My other two were bundled into the car, to keep them away from the uncomfortable situation.
Within five minutes of coming home, I hear my middle son shout to me. J had just wee'd on the sofa chair. I admit I shouted and shouted at him. I just don't know what to do.
In other situations, where I catch him wee'ing outside, I tell him "no". But he then yells "toilet, toilet, toilet", and people look at me as if I am a demon mother, for telling him "no". I can't seem to win.
He does not have a phobia of the toilet. He does use it, as well as his sprinkling in undesirable places.
I have said before in this blog, that phases last around 6-8 weeks. I presume it is just a matter of continuing to tell him "no" when he wee's in the wrong place, and hope it disappears quickly.
For the duration of these summer holidays, we are avoiding busy places. I just can not cope with the worry of his behaviour.
