Are there other developmental delays?

lil_ash,
Is there a baby or younger children in the house? If so he may be lacking in attention and may be regressing to get the same attention the younger child or children are getting. He's only five, avoid expecting him to grow up too fast. Make a huge fuss of him, lots of kisses and cuddles, chase him around the room. For now try to change him like you would a young child, avoid making too much fuss of the fact that he is messing himself. It'll pass.

Once he gets home put him on a schedule where he has to go to the toilet every half hour whether he needs to go or not. He may be too busy playing and not recognize the signal he needs to go until the last minute.
