Toilet Fear
Although older children may be happy to go to the toilet in their own home, doing so at school or at a
friend's house can be another matter. They may be worried about the unfamiliar toilet seat or
the fact that you are not there to help them flush.
The most important thing here is preparation at home. Once your child is old enough,
encourage your child to go to the toilet at home on their own. You can check with them afterwards
that they have wiped and washed properly, but get out of the habit of physically going with
them as soon as you can. Encourage your child to be vocal when they need the toilet. You might
even practice putting their hand up and asking to go to the loo so that they have no fear in
doing so at school. If you still think your child has a problem, discuss it with their
teacher, who is bound to have dealt with this little conundrum before. They can keep an eye on
your child and remember to ask him or her if they need the loo at regular intervals.
