I posted a question back in December, and to begin, I want to apologize for the screw-up when I put it under "Toddler-Pre-Schooler." Actually, I meant to put it under "Adolescent." To refresh memories, I pasted the question and the corresponding answer below, and I put them both in quotes to lessen the confusion when I write about the latest development. My question and the party's answer are as follows:

"Just the other day, I walked in on my son, who sat on the toilet with his hand behind him. When I looked to see what he was doing, I saw that he had a thick pad of toilet paper that was held about three inches from his butt by the biggest pile of poop I had ever seen, and he was holding the poop against his butt. By the look on his face, I could tell he was getting some sort of pleasure from doing this. Though I just turned and walked out, I wonder why he is doing this, and should I be concerned. He usually spends up to twenty minutes in the bathroom at a time. I have spent all night on line, looking for reasons as to why he likes holding his poop against himself, and I found nothing at all. Have you ever heard of this type of behavior before? Any advice would be helpful. Thank you."

"From the sounds of it your son has a poop fetish also known as Coprophilia.

Coprophilia is the paraphilia involving sexual arousal and pleasure from feces.

Some people with a poop fetish may also be aroused by watching others poop or watching others poop their pants or even being pooped.

But your son may just be interested and aroused by the poop itself.

It's normal but a rare fetish to have."

Now that you have read this, I will tell you about what occurred in the bathroom last night. I was passing by when I thought I heard my son say something. When I looked in on him, I saw that he was in the position I saw him in a while back, with a thick pad of toilet paper he had pooped a large pile on and was holding against his butt. He didn't notice me because I was peaking around a divider that separates the bathroom door from where the sink and toilet are situated. To keep my son's name private, I will call him Matthew. What I heard was my son, fully into his poop as he rocked the round firm ball up-and-down against his anal area, and how he was saying it is hard to explain, but I will do my best. He was talking in a low voice that was shaky and somewhat chesty, like he was struggling to speak while keeping from losing his breath altogether. He was saying, "Oh, Matthew, baby! You have a big poop in your diaper! Matthew! You don't want Mommy to change that one. Do you?" He then let himself go, and he said, "I don't want my diapo changed!" with a low, guttural moan. After he settled down, he started rocking his poop once again, and he said, "Oh, boy, Matthew! You like the feel of that big hot poop in your diaper! Oh, my poopy baby boy!" Again, is this something I should worry about? Does he want to wear diapers? What is this?

If your 12 year old son is playing with his poop and finding pleasure from holding the poop against his skin it could be caused by ADHD or sensory issues.

Some children love the feeling and texture of their poop and some kids who have ADHD or even high functioning autism are that way as well.

He may also have scatolia.

No one likes to talk about it, but fecal smearing, also called scatolia in medical literature, is surprisingly common among children and adults.

Playing with warm slime, play dough, shaving cream, or even adding sensory-friendly toys into their bedroom for quiet time can be a great outlet for stopping scatolia.

Restrictive clothing, such as sleepers or onesies, can be a useful tool to help keep the poop mess contained in toddlers and babies until you can give baby a change.

Sounds to me that your son wants to wear diapers and wants to poop in them.

He likely is a diaper lover and loves the poop against his butt.

I will sometimes poop my diaper and then say to myself like I'm talking with someone else and say I don't want to be changed, no mommy don't change me.

I just wish I had someone to actually say that too and have someone to diaper me and change me.

Sounds to me like your son is a diaper lover and wants to be a toddler.

If your 12 year old son loves to have poop against his skin he should be put in diapers as much as he can wear them.

If your 12 year old son can wear diapers all the time then I would allow him to wear the diapers all the time and poop and pee in them.

I always loved pooping in my diapers and even as a toddler I would sit in poop for hours if I was allowed too.

I would poop my diaper and not tell my parents or always deny that I pooped my diaper.

I hated having my poopy diaper changed as I loved the poop feeling against my butt.

If you're not comfortable changing his diapers then tell him that he must at least properly clean up after his poopy diaper.

A shower is a good way to clean up poop after poopy diaper play.

Even kids without any issues just love to wear diapers and poop and or pee in them.

I would allow him too wear them and use them.
