I asked for us to be referred to psychologist to help us deal with ds' severe constipation and reluctance to use the toilet properly. Weve just come back from our second appointment and the psych (lovely lady) has hinted that im infantilising ds (9) because I remind him/tell him to go to the toilet. I explained that given that he is 9 and at school and is on quite a bit of medication it is hard to balance everything with regards to "clearing out" - how I wished this was all sorted before he started school. I feel terrible now as she also said I was sensitive to his needs and fears.
