We have a kindergartener that strips all his clothes off every time he uses the bathroom. He has always done this at home and is doing it at school now too. The parents are no help. Telling him to stop does nothing either. The teacher and paras have decided to send him to me now to "monitor him" while using the bathroom to get this behavior to stop. I did not accept the task and told them I would not be monitoring any child using the bathroom without specific orders to do so. I rarely say no, but felt that this was not the best solution to this problem and felt that it was just being passed off to me because no one else wants to deal with it. I suggested that he use a stall with the door closed instead of being allowed to use the urinal. Is it because it involves the bathroom that it is assumed the nurse should handle it? Have any of you been in a similar situation?
