This book is an accessible guide to dealing with the common problems of stool withholding, soiling and wetting in young children.

The author explains the importance of diet and offers advice on how to make using the toilet less frightening, how to keep a stool diary chart and what laxatives and medications to use in different circumstances. He also offers guidance on how to tackle inappropriate lavatorial behavior sensitively and issues particular to children with special needs.
