Rule #383: If I take out the bathroom trash one more time and a get a handful of pee, you will no longer be allowed to pee in the bathroom. You will be peeing either downstairs or outside.
I heard of a mom who spread kitty litter around her toilet to prove to the men in her life just how bad their aim was…with a hubby and 2 boys, I just may resort to the same thing!! Or install a urinal in the basement!
I have gone through periods where I mandated only sitting peeing. Yeah, since I won’t be with them in the bathroom it rarely works, but…it was a thought.
Yeah. My little boy was a sitter until his grandmother thought it would be a good idea to encourage him to stand. Since then, he has twice pooped on the floor while peeing standing, and I have not sat on a dry toilet seat in weeks!
Or, you could just have the offender CLEAN the bathroom which has worked at our house. Only takes a couple of times of scrubbing the toilet and the floor near the toilet to fix the aim.
mine did this, peeing in the garbage, and it was almost full with pee. I had no idea why their bathroom smelled so bad! Boys are nasty! Unfortunatly I was busy and stuck the garbage can outside, and forgot about it. It was Dec and it froze! So we had a yard full of frozen pee chips mixed with some random garbage for a couple days!
OMG, I’m catching up on rules I missed for a year & was so thrilled to see I’m not the only one dealing with this!!
Just 2mo ago I bought a new trash can with a lid & a foot pedal (didn’t need the pedal, just the lid lol) because, like some mentioned, the bathroom was always stinking & come to find out, somehow my 6yo son was bypassing the BAG and getting it in the can under the bag (HOW, I’ll never learn I’m sure). I was getting so irate at him doing this I got my new trash can & he has become the appointed toilet cleaner. Told him when he stops peeing on everything he can stop cleaning it up, until then, he’s cleaning the toilet, not me!
Unlike a previous commenter, this hasn’t fixed it for me, during the first cleaning spree he tells me “ma, I think I’m getting the hang of this!” & he actually enjoys cleaning the toilet, REALLY??????
I am the Meanest Mommy in the Whole Wide World. I am forced to make rules & observations that I never knew would be necessary before I became a parent.

Agree, Ei. We require the boys to sit while peeing at home; otherwise, the mess is ridiculous.

Love it!
I always had my son toss in a square of toilet paper and told him to shoot it. Worked (almost) every time.
