OMG... are you serious?!

This kid has obviously got some kind of issue. Humiliating, debasing, and dehumanizing him is not going to do ANYTHING!

Of course I explained to him what was happening (actually we had talked about things before this, but it didn't hurt to repeat it) and everything was fine. But before that, I never even thought that an erection would be the reason why he couldn't or wouldn't pee in the toliet.

OMG, poor guy! He must've been so embarrassed! I feel for you, mama.

You might want to tell him to try walking around in circles for a bit to try and calm the penis down. My DP swears by it

So here it is again, so you can all stop crucifing me 1. Have him clean up his pee, instead of you (if you are cleaning it up for him) Maybe if he knows that he has to clean it up, he will make the extra effort to get to the bathroom. 2. -If he can't get up to take a leak, give him an potty and a diaper. -If he can't get up to take a leak, he can't get up to watch TV or play video games. -If he is truely JUST doing this because he is lazy, and he is "acting like a baby" instead of the teenager he nearly is, then treat him like a "baby" He will get the point, and he will get it fast. It isnt rubbing his nose in it, it isnt dehumanizing to offer him a diaper or pureed vegetables if he wants to "be a baby" The kid is twelve years old, he has been potty trained for like ten years, and he is just now getting into the lazy teenager phase. I have no reason to think that children would lie to their parents. If my kid tells me "I didn't want to get up" it means "I didnt wanna get up" I have no reason to not trust her childs word.

Where do you even come up with this sick crap? What makes you think it would be a GOOD IDEA? OMG! *checks address bar* Yep, still MDC.. WTF?

I know a LOT of people (including myself) who have dreamed about peeing and then started doing it in their sleep, waking up a little too late to catch themselves.

Maybe that's what happened, and he's too embarrassed to let OP know? Like he'll feel silly?
