My 4 year old is waiting too long to use the bathroom. At home and at school. She’s having to much fun and goes too late and has an accident. My husband wants to give consequences, like no iPad or no special snacks. I disagree. I feel like we just need to reinforce the importance of going to the bathroom right away. These things happen. He’s the same way about food. If she does t eat all her lunch at school. Again I disagree. What does everyone think? TIA

I'm wirh you on both cases. Having an accident is a consequence enough, it's not nice for her and feeling shamed and punished will not help. More so with food, children know when it's enough food, parents job is to offer food, not to force it into the child.
