Some times children do toilet in improper places and do not tell about toilet despite frequently asked to do so. This may be also due to mushy stools as they passes easily and some times involuntarily with gas passing. This problem also may be related to some disease condition or behavioral disorder.
People should contact doctor if they notice constant mushy stools in children with poor weight gain or growth.
