What is encopresis often associated with?

  1. Delayed language development

  2. Repeated passing of feces in inappropriate places

  3. Difficulty with motor skills

  4. Inability to interact socially

The correct answer is: Repeated passing of feces in inappropriate places

Encopresis is a condition in which a child regularly passes feces in inappropriate places, which can include soiling their clothing or hiding their bowel movements. This behavior is often associated with feelings of shame, embarrassment, or lack of control, and can be a result of underlying stress or psychological issues. While delayed language development (A), difficulty with motor skills (C), and inability to interact socially (D) are all possible concerns for children with encopresis, they are not directly related to the condition itself. Therefore, they are not the most accurate answer to the question.
