Another toilet incident

The other day Stinky has been playing outside and Whinus has been out and about. Stinky has an understanding with the boy, and so how children are able to behave better than adults. Unfortunately, this also means that Whinus has not taken any clues about his need to use our powder room. It was dark and late, we had called Stinky back into the house. But there was an issue, Whinus needed to use the powder room. I was not happy. Honestly I was afraid of the kid using it as an excuse to get in the house again. Worry not. He came in went to the powder room, and spent over 12 minutes stinking it up to high heaven. What is with that kid? He's now 10, there is no earthly reason to assume otherwise that a child that age, recognizes when he needs to attend personal needs. Nor there a logical reason why he can not walk the 50 yards at most to his own home.

We were so disgusted by it. Goof knew it was going to be bad when he saw Whinus at the door. What is wrong with the people who live on that street? I've had Big Red blow up my powder room several times now, and Whinus can't seem to realize that his body is telling him to go attend issues until he's about to soil himself, and he still can't seem to get it in his head that it's more logical to head home when that time arises. Now we all know realistically if someone lives more than 2 minutes away and you've had to drive or bike over here, we aren't going to make them head home. Neville, who I've taken to calling Frick (yes he says that a lot, we made a song about it.) Lives about 2 miles away, so naturally if nature calls he's going to use our toilet. We've seen Stinky out and about playing and he will run back into the house use the toilet and head back out, this is when they are outside in the woods or around the cul de sac.

The next day, when I was taking Stinky to school, I put it in no uncertain terms that boy will not use our bathroom again. No reason for him to use ours as he lives so close. Of course if he were to bring a cashiers check for $100 as a deposit for the plumber then I would allow it. Stinky wasn't pleased with this, but as boys are wont to do, he mentioned what happened to Big Red. So Big Red told Stinky, that Whinus is not allowed to use their bathroom either. I don't know if it's cut and dried like that, but I can certainly see why they would put that into effect as they only have one bathroom in the house. Not that Big Red would admit or realize that he's got issues in that department also. I'll have to talk about my frustrations with Big Red another time.
