My 8 year old DD doesn't know how to wipe after #2 properly. I am finding her underwear full of it, and she smells bad. How can I teach her at this age? Any tips would be appreciated!

It's possible she has encopresis and it's not from wiping

I started keeping baby wipes (and garbage can) in each bathroom and it really eliminated our problem! Regular toilet paper was just too hard for my child

Same issue with my 7 year old. Baby wipes help but I still have to remind her. Glad to hear she’s not the only one.. good luck
