Today, at pickup, the teacher told me that my 3yo son got caught peeing at the wall instead of using the toilet. At home i asked if it was fun peeing at the wall and reminded him that we should use toilet for that. He got mad and walked away from me. Advice on how to handle this situation pls.

There is no "situation" to "handle". He is just being a 3yo kid.

3 yo kid trying to figure out the best place to pee. I mean i get it!

Be grateful it’s a wall. One of my cousins peed on the ceiling to see if he could.

Oh my! 😅

The recommendation I've heard is gamify the bowl. Put one or two m&ms, Cheerios, or some other small and safely flushable food in the toilet and have him do "target practice." If you use something sweet, he also gets one for succeeding.

Thank you! That is a great idea.

Oh boys…. I would ask him why he peed on the wall and listen to what he says. Then have a conversation about why it’s wrong and keep it moving. It’s possible something was going on that made him do that. Hugs mama.

I asked him during bedtime. He said it was fun. Not sure if there is something. I will have to see if this happens again.
