Have they tested to see if the child is lactose intolerant?  If he is and he is being forced to drink milk at home and school (for lunch), this could be the reason.

I agree with Whiz and Kd.  I am a teacher and I'm constantly telling the boys to pull up their pants.  I have plastic ties that I put on their pants to hold them up if I have to ask them more than once.  It's a disgusting look and it makes them walk like a duck.\n\nIf they knew where it really originated from maybe some of them wouldn't wear their pants like that.  It comes from men in prison.  If their pants were worn that way it meant they were "the girls" if you know what I mean.

There might be a medical reason for it, so see a doctor to be safe.

It is bad, concerning his biology.\nOf course, I assume the following:\n1) He sits with his pants and underwear off (likely around the ankles)\n2) The top seat cover is up, with the "ring" seat down.\n\nIf he sits there for long periods of time, this can lead to nerve damage of the sciatica and/or hemorroids.

I assume it has to do with your thyroid gland.  I'm sure your parents are relived not to be changing your diapers for the rest of your life.

It's common among kids to eat paper. If she's abusing it eating more than maybe a page per day I suppose some of the chemicals on paper could cause her. Paper is rich in cellulose, so it has a lot of fiber. \nBuy her unbleached paper.

Please talk to your parents about this, it could be something so simple as dye in something you ingested but read below and click on the website to learn more and then talk to your parents.\n\nBlood in the stool may not always be serious, but it should always be checked by a physician. Any change in bowel habits, such as color, odor, frequency, or consistency (constipation or diarrhea) that does not clear up within a few days is reason to make an appointment with a family practitioner or a gastroenterologst.\nCauses of Red or Black Colored Stools.

I just heard this discussion on a radio program.  They said that when a child who has already learned to use the bathroom on their own--especially children above the ages of 6 to 7--and then they begin either peeing in their underwear or in their bed, that they may have a urinary tract infection.  A parent should have them checked thoroughly by their doctor first and foremost.  \n\nI read a lot and I have learned that sometimes this type of thing happens when a child is a victim of sexual abuse. Talk to your child.  But most importantly, LISTEN.  And even then, read between the lines because if she is being abused, she could have been threatened by the molester and is afraid to open up.

Because you are a dirty slob.  Take a shower and scrub yourself clean.  Apply a corn starch based body powder and wear clean underpants.  Also, wipe your arse better.

It could be just the process of growing and if he's a very active little guy, it could be understandable.  But just to be on the safe side, I would take him to a pediatrician or at least call the pediatricin and talk to them about it.  Never hurts to get the little ones "checked-out" from time to time.

A normal bowel movement is different for each person and may vary in consistency and frequency. There are, however, several indications that a bowel movement is abnormal and may be the sign of a more serious problem. \nA change in bowel habits includes any constant change in bowel frequency, color, consistency, or shape of stools. This sign warrants special concern in people who are over the age of 50 years.\n\nBlood. Frank blood in the stool is never normal, and could be a result of several conditions that range from mild, such as hemorrhoids, to serious, such as infection or colon cancer. Bloody stools should always be evaluated by a physician.\n\nBlack stools. Black, tarry stools with a foul odor can be the result of eating certain foods, taking iron supplements, or possibly from internal bleeding.\n\nRed or maroon stools. Red or maroon stools could be from something benign, such as eating red colored foods or it could be caused by several different conditions including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, colon polyps or colon cancer, diverticular bleeding, or inflammatory bowel disease.\n\nGreen stool. Green stool may be caused by green or artificially colored foods, iron supplements, or decreased colonic transit time.\n\nPale or clay colored stools. Stools that appear pale or look like clay could be the result of lack of bile salt (which gives stool a brownish color), antacids, barium from recent barium enema test, or hepatitis.\n\nYour BEST bet is to go see your Family Physician!

Healthy people can have green poop if they eat a diet rich in leafy green vegetables, or if they consume large quantities of food coloring (in ice cream, cake frosting etc.). \n    Green poop can also be caused by excess iron in the diet, from dietary supplements, for example. If the body does not absorb all the iron consumed, the iron may stain the poop green, the color of iron (II) salts. Ordinarily, the green color may be masked by the normal brown poop color, but if digestion is thrown off by illness so that bilirubin is less concentrated in the intestine, the green color may become apparent. This can happen when a person is afflicted with diarrhea. \n    Green poop in sick babies may come from iron in baby formula not being properly absorbed, or by green pigments in bile salts (again, green from iron).

It seems like he might just be saying that.  Little kids do stuff like that.  If you believe it's something more than just a phase he's going through, take him to the doctor.  Maybe he has a really sensitive nose.

Your friend may have hemorrhoids, which is a very common problem, made worse by straining when constipated. There are over the counter meds for this such as Preparation H. If the condition continues or gets worse, though, she should see a doctor.
