Soiling is a distressing and often stigmatizing problem that is
common in children and can also affect adolescents. This clearly
written book shows parents and carers how to assess and treat
soiling problems effectively.
Whether the problem is soiling with or without constipation, toilet
refusal, or soiling with wetting, the chapters provide step-by-step
instructions and concrete ideas to help children and adolescents
achieve continence. All recommendations are based on the latest
scientific studies and guidelines such as those of the International
Children's Continence Society (ICCS). Useful charts and
questionnaires help identify the exact problem, track progress on a
daily basis, and increase motivation.
This practical guide is ideal for parents as well as for teachers,
educators, and caregivers.
