Same. Though I've heard it's normal at 5 yrs old. My twins have been potty trained since 20 and 23 mths. But they REFUSE to attempt to wipe their butts. My boy twin attempted once a year ago but refuses now. BOTH of them say they will do it when they are this or that age. -_- My brother has three boys. He told me he his sons watch him do it himself, and that worked for them. I don't know if I can do that. I tell them to go away when it's time for me to do that. My husband isn't able to show my son b/c he has a physical disability. I have had them practice with balloons taped to their little chairs a few times. It becomes a big, annoying thing, though. They get stupid silly, and it's just pointless.
lol commenting bc im also dealing with this but i have no advice honestly 😭
@Melissa I ended up having to do some tough love and tell my 5 year old I'm not wiping and walk away. I'll come back once I hear her doing it to help guide and check she got it all. We started this last year when she started TK and I still have to tell her to wipe more than once/ until it's clean.
A. My son has a problem wiping her correctly after pooping as well. I just show him the wipe and look method and that works. I would also advise maybe giving him actual flush of a wipes then toilet paper to use at home and maybe speak to the teacher about sending some to school if he is in school
Wolfoo has a video on wiping available on YouTube.
My son needs help with this too. 🫠 been potty trained for years but we always helped him.. should have done it sooner and now he doesn’t want to do it himself.
