My son demands nappys for no.'2s

I'm having a very difficult time with my 4 year old son at the moment, he's showing some signs of autism and in very concerned.

He can wee on the potty and I've cracked dryness at night been two weeks dry now.

I've tried to get him to sit on the toilet and potty for no 2's who will scream and shout for nappys constantly and will not stop. I end up caving in as not long ago some one called the police due to his shouting and screaming.

I really don't know what to do. Any advice or tips?

Hi Squibblypanda please rest assured that this isn't unusual. Many children are so used to the comfort and security not only of the nappy but of the feeling of the poo close to them, that they can be very frightened to lose that. Have a look at the following: eric.org.uk/pdf-children-wh... and this podcast: eric.org.uk/episode-2-child... do contact our Helpline if you need more advise. best wishes ERIC
