My son is now 3.5 yrs old and still isn't fully potty trained. He goes #1 in the potty like a big boy, but when it comes to #2, he simply refuses and would rather do it in his pants. Even when I catch him in time, I put him on the potty and tell him to go #2 there, he will sit for up to an hour, refusing to do his business there.
Why is it that some children rather poo in their pants?
I don't see why that would be satisfying.

I know what your going through. We got our daughter trained at the same age. We put a toy, or a book, or stickers, anything we thought she would want, on the bathroom sink, and told her if you take a poo poo, you get the book , or whatever you put up there, nothing that costs alot, because it takes a few times. My little girl became a pro at it, and after a while, no toy was needed. Only keep them on the potty for 20 min. at a time, 2 times an hour.

Leave it for yet another month, then take a look at once more. The lady continues to be a bit of younger. Leave your son to wander circular the apartment without a pants on so he can see what he produces. Dont shout at him simply inspire him fortunately to take a look at the potty subsequent time if he pees at the flooring. But dont drive him to take a seat on it and dont make an excessive amount of of a gigantic deal My boys have been all potty educated this fashion inside per week. My youngest son NEVER sat at the potty. He stood on the toliet to do his pees. He used to be most effective two years historic. He refused to take a seat at the potty.

Your right on the "edge" Honey and, I bet tearing your hair out. He'll do this off and on for a couple of years, Some start right away and never go in their pants again, others, they seem to enjoy that warm, comfortable feeling. Yuk!
Don't push it or punish, keep at it slowly soon, someday it'll happen all at once.

my cousins son did the same thing, so when they were home she would make him run around naked from the waist down
(he'd go to the bathroom if he naked) eventually he learned
my son was never a problem, he was house broken by age 2,
he would go outside to go potty by himself (guess he watched the cats and dogs!)
