I don't know if this is a cultural thing but I have two East indian families that are hyper-focused on whether their child goes poop here or not. They will drop off in the morning telling the kds to make sure and poop today, they will text me twice ( x two families) during the day to see if they have and are really upset at the end of the day if they have not. These are two separate unrelated families. I found out one kid is expected to poop at least twice a day and if he doesn't they start pushing the laxatives and prune juice. I even caught them doing it in the car in my driveway.
On a side note neither one of them EVER poops at my house and this is very concerning to the moms. I told them I can't make them or stop them from pooping, it is up to their own bodies. If I knew a trick to stopping from kids from pooping at my house I would definitely start doing it. My house would smell so much better.
I always get the disappointed look at night when I tell them they haven't pooped and feel like they are accusing me of stopping it somehow.
One of the girls is a tiny little thing that only drinks pediasure at my house. If I can convince her to eat anything she stores it in her cheeks and I have to dig it out after the meal. So I get why she isn't pooping, no solid food in her life. Funny enough the other little girl is also a food squirrel and will hold anything she doesn't like in her cheeks too. So weird.
