When it Rains Pee it Pours Pee
Posted in Rantings by: Alisa
Why is that? Why do I have three potty trained children that cannot keep the pee in the toilet? At friend’s houses, at school, in the car, in the dining room, at the park!!! Holy crap. If they would even give me one minutes warning I could at least get them to a bush. Just kidding. I would at least get them off of my carpet. I guess the one’s where there is a bathroom in the same building is the one that baffles me the most. And yes, it is all three of them that are currently peeing in their pants. I’m about to have a nervous breakdown. One of them actually said to me today that he peed at school but didn’t tell anyone and is still wearing the same pants. I guess that might be OK if it was the first time. 
This happened last week also. Is there a puddle of pee under his chair just waiting to be stepped in? Did he only pee a tiny bit so it really wasn’t a big deal? I don’t know the answers to these questions. This has been going on for three weeks now. Every time I turn around at least one of them has peed somewhere other than the toilet. I’m baffled, I’m perplexed, I’m sick of cleaning up pee. But I digress. I know in a few weeks I’ll have a clean and tidy house, car, classroom, park, etc. and I’ll forget all about this.
I just thought you might like a change of pace from the election so I decided to throw all my garbage on you. Thanks for letting me vent. I mean there’s nothing I can do, 
right? It’s just a passing phase, right? I look at those angels and think “Why are they doing this?” and I have no answers. Oh well. Has this happened to you?

Sometimes I wonder if boys will be boys. You know, easier access, easier aim, easier everything when it comes to point and shoot.

The title of this post creates a great visual image.

HALLELUJAH SISTER! The other day, like many days, I couldn’t find the pee smell in the bathroom. I checked the frequent spots: seat hinges, bottom of shower curtain, garbage can, etc., and finally found my toilet brush holder fulll to the brim of middle-of-the-night, golden yellow, urine. Awesome! Where next? Really, how hard can it be when your little dingle is resting on the toilet rim?

too funny Summer!
When Mike worked at Agnews he took one ‘client’ to the bathroom. The male client sat down on the toilet and loudly exclaimed BRRRRR! Mike asked the guy thru the door what was he BRRing about and the client, who was sitting on the toilet said “the water is really cold!” evidently there is some meds that, um, increase the, uh, size….
ok I have never gone thru what you are right now, BUT, I would recommend rewarding them, FOR STAYING DRY. And maybe even embarass them by telling them that even tho nobody says anything, the teacher still knows that they peeped. Because teachers are ALL KNOWING.
my neighbor bought a black light at Linens And Things especially for cleaning. You shine it in your bathroom and can tell exactly where the urine is. How handy is that?

Should we start a support group? And, hey, at least they’re pouring pee and not the other stuff you saw coming out of my kid’s pants this morning. p.s. Thanks for saving me, by the way!

I too am having some of these issues with my 11 year old stepson. He all of the sudden is wetting the bed almost every night again. And the worst part is, he won’t change his sheets unless I make him. And we also find little raisin shaped surprises on our carpet every once in awhile. How can you leave pieces of poo on the carpet??? Mind you, I have a baby boy who crawls all over the place, and I pray with all my heart, that he never finds one before I do. What can I do?
