Why would a kid use body fluids as revenge?


Question:
I know a 12 year old that puts soiled on toilet paper in the cupboard under the sink instead of in the toilet, pees in places other than the toilet and puts soiled underwear in the closet. Is this a sign of, well it has to be a sign of something, but what?

Answers:
This is common behaviour for kids with forms of autism as well as some other quite serious mental disorders. I also know of one case where a kid around that age was pooping in the various planter pots around the house and it turned out that he was being molested by his mom's new husband. I'm not sure how the pschology all fits together other than it is a plea for help.
Its the sign of a kid that needs discipline.
It's a sign the kid needs help and fast! Wow, makes one wonder how the kid got so messed up? What are the parents like?
He probably has liberal parents who allowed him to throw poop on the wall when younger, as a form of free expression. They're probably offended at any suggestion of discipline, thinking it to be unrefined or savage.
It would be a sign of abuse or some disorder - social or emotional. Anyway you look at it -- it doesn't sound like a positive situation. Help is needed - and fast.
He may be ashamed of it.

Have you explained to him that stuff like that goes in the toilet?

Or, he has some issues that he can't talk about, like being bullied at school.
This is usually a sign of a mental disorder. I would get him help fast!
It sounds to me as though the boy has regressed back to when he was being potty trained, & maybe his parents scolded him for messing his pants or not making it to the toilet in time to pee, so he's acting out now. He's been shamed in his younger years & is afraid of being shamed again. I don't know what happened when he was being potty trained but I have heard of parents who severely punished their children, usually their sons for messing their pants. He's not getting revenge, he's got some real hangups. Can't you talk to his parents or a close relative about this kid's behavior? You know this isn't normal & he needs to be able to explain why he's doing what he's doing. I'm no psychiatrist, I'm just trying to understand what the problem might be.
