For starters, I would not want carpet in their room.
Secondly, since they were toilet trained, I teach them they must pick up the seat and try to aim right. One boy had an issue, it was surgically repaired.
If anything goes on the seat, it needs to get wiped. I'm sorry, but we dont live like animals do...
Just as brushing teeth is part of our routine. There isn't an excuse to say I'm lazy...
If they did it once for a joke, I would say normal but deserves a big reprimand. But regularly?!??? NO it's not. Are they gonna grow up thinking it's ok to pee anywhere? |
I would have the same response and actually did years back before I had these kids. Parenting has taught me that what I want is not always what happens. Yes even if they know what and how they are supposed to do something.

Twice that many boys here and can't imagine any of them doing something like that.

We are officially pulling up the carpet today and found fresh pee spots. What is wrong with my kids???????
Do I need to get a therapist or something?

Consequences
Cleaning up the pee themselves
Puppies less than eight weeks can be trained to do their business outside.

It’s not so easy to break a bad habit and they obviously had made a habit of it. Sounds like one of them came up with this genius idea and convinced the other it was funny and now they’re used to it. Hopefully pulling out the carpet will do the trick.
That said, I would go crazy if this were happening in my house and there would be serious consequences. I’m impressed at how rationally you’re handling it.
