Enuresis is when a child soils their pants, while Encopresis is when a child wets their pants, typically involuntarily. Group of answer choicesTrue False

The statement is False.

To clarify, enuresis refers specifically to the involuntary discharge of urine, commonly known as bedwetting, and can occur during the day or at night. It is more prevalent in younger children, often resolving with age. On the other hand, encopresis refers to the involuntary passage of feces, leading to soiling of clothing, and is distinct from urinary incontinence. Both conditions may arise from various underlying issues, including psychological factors, developmental delays, or physical issues, but they pertain to different bodily functions. It’s important for caregivers to understand the distinctions between these two conditions to properly address and manage them.
