Wiping own bum

Do your kids wipe their own bum? My little boy is fully potty training in the day time but he is struggling with wiping his own bum. He starts in preschool on Monday and I'm a bit worried, will this be a common thing??

My 6 year old brother still isn't wiping his bum. My 3 year old has been potty trained for a year now and has never wanted to wipe her own bum. I'm not gonna force that personally. They're still babies xx

Completely normal! I still check my 6yr old! Preschool will assist with bum wiping, as a childminder I encourage trying them selves but always check it’s properly clean, which is exactly what we do at preschool, especially as we get to the final term before school starts

Mine doesn’t! I do it for him

Nope, I do it for him for now. We’ll start tackling that before school ☺️

Thank you all, that makes me feel so much better. I've been panicking about this. I've been encouraging it but not forcing it and then this time has rolled around so fast!
