Causes of Encopresis

Abstract
In Reply.— I appreciate Dr Weintraub's thoughtful comment regarding my reply on the report on encopresis by de Vos et al.1 In reality, the plan for the case I described2 was for the mother to familiarize the child with the nature of the toilet setting and to demonstrate casually the safety and harmlessness of sitting on the toilet but not necessarily at the time of the private function. However, that was the extent to which it was carried out by the mother, perhaps with the thought that it was a more realistic approach.
