What Causes The Three Year Old To Pass Urine On The Clothes?
My best friends little girl is three, she has been touching herself when she has no clothes on. For the past few months she has been deliberatly pooping in the floor, when we ask her why she did it she just stares at us and won t talk. She will also stand by her potty chair and pee on herself, please help we don t know what to do

Hi....this is a habitual problem. In such scenarios if we ask or try to stop the habit by force the kid will develop more interest in the act and start doing it even more. The best way is to ignore it and try telling softly that it is wrong. Reprimanding will increase the situation.
