They clearly cannot be bothered with them, what sort of people will these poor kids grow up to be?
It seems to me this generation of people are all me me me and designer this and designer that and someone else or something is to blame not them(ADHD is apparently the favorite as then you get extra benefits too). Now fair enough to a degree but when it starts getting like this something is clearly wrong.
These are not disabled children or poor (although what that has to do with it I am not sure).
Perhaps I am just getting old.

\\\You mention "poo" - chances are that the headmistress from Dover has loads of poor children, we have one of the most deprived wards in the country in our town.\\\
It is not JUST poor children, affluent parents are involved in a larger degree.
50 years on of "progressive" parenting, education and health developments and this is the outcome.

My niece completed a years training in a private school then secured a job in a school that is described by the council as being in a deprived area. In the private school none of the pupils had problems using the toilet however in the school she is in now she would estimate that it is 75% of the class. She buys spare underwear at the beginning of every term to cope with it
who said socialists come from poor families? I came from the poorest section of society and as such worked out that socialism cannot possibly work when I was about 2. Most socialists come from affluent backgounds, they are the ones who can afford to have that ideology. When I said they are trainee socialists I was referring to the general socialist belief that society should provide for their every need. Sorry that was lost.
There are, according to the article, 16,000 primary schools in the country and 602 teachers completed the report. I can't see that that is anywhere near a big enough sample for the conclusions that are being drawn. If there are just 5 teachers in each school, that equates to 0.75% have replied. Not that 0.75% have a problem with this, but that 0.75% have replied. Nowhere does it say how many people have actually reported the problem, just that they've found some examples in what they call 'a substantial number' of schools. How many is that? 5? 50? 500? Without that number there is no way that anybody can judge whether this is a serious problem or merely an isolated instance.
Shoddy journalism.

I work in an infant school and we do have a couple of kids each new intake that have toileting problems. I'm afraid to say for the most part it is lazy parenting.
To a large degree the new intake don't know how to sit at a table and eat lunch, or eat a meal within 1 hour, don't know how to hold a knife and fork let alone use them. They don't know the difference between sweets and friut and in fact will tell you they have friut when they have a packet of sweets in thier lunch box (yes it's true and happens every day).
Lazy parenting gives a 5 to 7yr old child a chocolate spread sandwich, chocolate cake, twix and a packet of sweets for lunch. A very obvious reason the nation is getting fatter perhaps?

It was reported on Sky News this morning that some are as old as 14 and 15.
How can this possibly be, since it was also stated that these children had no disabilities or medical problems?
Since working mothers are now granted a long period off work, schools of childcare should be set up and mothers obliged to attend classes on the fundamentals of motherhood.

very few children, regardless of the skill of the parents (or not) will be toilet trained after 6 months. just about every authority there is (including the government) expect working mothers to be back at their desks at the earliest opportunity.

I am not saying they would be toilet trained after only 6 months, what I was saying, that new mothers should attend classes in child care during this time off work, this then would educate them to teach their child when in their care ie after work, so as to get them toilet trained before starting school.

I remember when I was at primary school 45 years ago that there were a couple of wetters, so I do not think this is anything new or confined to the current generation.
My sister is a Primary school assistant and I talked to her about this story yesterday. She said that in each new intake of 5 year ols, there is usually one or two 'who have accidents'.
My guess is this is normal, nothing new, not wide spread and certainly says nothing about modern parents.
