Yeah I think he's just distracted and doesn't care. This just started in the last few weeks; all of a sudden he does it once or twice a week. That was already getting on my nerves; three times in one day had me wanting to kill him.
my kid does it too. it's weird that this is universal, having seen all the dumb sitcom bits on tv where the kid is doing the obvious pee dance and then claims not to need to go (and then has an accident in uproarious fashion).
It does help to hear that other kids are a pain in the ass about this too. Like 31 always says, misery loves company. I'm just especially frustrated because it seems to be new behavior. He's had more than his share of issues with waiting too long to shit, but he hadn't pissed himself in like a year, and now it's happened about 7 times in the last few weeks.
Speaking of things happening with an increased frequency... In 2 of the last 3 weekends, he has lost multiple teeth. I don't know how the fuck he chews anything right now.

mine had gone a very long time without an incident and then we took him to vote last week, standing in an interminable line outside the polling place and i had to race him into the woods behind the building to piss before he wet himself.

back on the kids pissing themselves topic: mine chooses to wait until he's about to pop before he pees. often results in him dribbling on the waistband of his shorts because he's in such a rush to whip it out. i do not want him to be the piss boy at school but i'm kind of worried that's where we're headed. i don't even know how to fix this, do i just set reminders on my phone?
So we got 3 or 4 inches of snow on Friday night into Saturday morning, not a ton but enough that the kids were able to go sledding this weekend. Now, we live on a huge hill but all of the backyards are fenced in so there's no real place to sled through yards, at least not out back. Well, on Saturday, the kids were sledding essentially down the sidewalk. A couple of the dads up the street didn't shovel their driveway, and then we decided that I would shovel mine since mine was right where the road curves and that way hopefully kids wouldn't go hurtling out onto the street. So anyway, they sled a bunch Saturday, pretty normal stuff. Continued to sled on Sunday. Well, at this point the sidewalk has turned into packed ice, essentially a luge chute with no friction at all (think of your mom, you get the idea). In any case, I'm sitting in the kitchen playing with the youngest (Hi Ho Cherry-O, I got destroyed) and my wife walks into the living room and I just hear "Holy shit was that <middle kid>?"
We go out on the front porch and the kids are legitimately doing 20 mph at least going down the hill, definitely faster than cars typically go down our hill. Thankfully, nobody sustained an injury or anything, kids had fun, etc etc.

we have a rule that the boy cannot bring his friends inside while we're working. wife has lots of meetings, etc. today, he brought a friend in, they were hooting & hollering, they left the door open and let the dog escape. Wife was in one of said meetings of course, so i ran downstairs and was yelling at him before i could see him. He and his friend took off and ran from me. I got the dog back inside and then went looking for him, he was hiding in a neighbor's yard. that little fucker lost his video games until school starts back. run from me, little shit..grumble grumble grumble

My daughter was in the other room was having her social studies class. They were talking about Trump's impeachment.
The teacher asked her if she thought they were expecting an attack on the capitol. She panicked and admitted afterwards that she just repeated something I said......
She told her teacher "well they knew all those people were being there and they were acting crazy. But there wasn't enough cops and they just let them in. Makes no sense". The teacher was silent.

i have had to tell my kid more than once that he should not repeat what his mother says about Trump outside of the house. He was complaining about kids teasing him on the bus last year about it, i was stunned. like, #1, how the hell did the president come up on an 10 minute elementary school bus ride? I was worried he was going around just spouting it out like some kind of Kathy Griffin insane person but apparently the other kids were talking about Trump and asked him if he was with it. Kids are weird man.
