Anyone been through this with a kid?? Obviously I've been through it myself, but... She was here last night and called me up to the bathroom - she had had a poop accident all over the bathroom. Told me it just came out faster than she thought and she didn't make the toilet. Said she wasn't sick, and felt fine, but I'm wondering. DH is going to call her mom just to give her a heads up to be on the lookout for anything. Should I be worried or think it was just one of those things??? FWIW she's 14.

TMI alert, but when I was a teen, I often had diarrhea when I had my period. I Googled it years later (obviously no Google back then, and I never discussed it with anyone), but evidently the body releases a chemical to "release" your blood/tissue buildup, and it can also cause diarrhea.
And OMG, I seriously would have been mortified and would have rather scrubbed the bathroom top to bottom before I told my stepmom about it.

I'm so confused. What does it have to do with puberty? Am I missing something? Why would you be worried? It sounds like she had an accident and panicked about not knowing how to clean it up.
What are you wondering? What should her mom be on the lookout for?
Did I mention I'm confused?
That's what I was thinking might be going on. She WAS mortified, but didn't know what to do, and I guess we have a really good relationship so she felt ok calling me. I tried to not make a big deal out of it and just made sure she was ok and that the dirty things made it to the basement where the washer is. I asked her today once if she was feeling ok, but other than that, didn't say anything. Didn't want to make her feel odd.

I think she's fine, and that it took courage to tell you about it. I wouldn't be worried about her at all, except to make sure she's feeling okay. Don't really think it has anything to do w/puberty.
this was something that happened to a few girls I know.
Ditto this!! WTH?!
