Might be a regression based on things htat have happened, Dad died, your husb. about to leave for a long time.  A lot of changes for a little guy.  I would not punish him for doing it, it might make things worse.  Just give him love and cont. to let him know how much you love him.

Well , his younger sister is going to be 2 on may 18th my husband and son have a great relationship they play together go watch movies and such were a close family because we dont know howe long we have between deployments . so we stay really close all the time he did have a Urine test and they didnt find anything he does know my husband will be deploying shortly  and the therapist said he is ok mentally so im really at a loss for whats going on . it may just be a phase i hope anyway

It does sound as if he is upset by something, I am so sorry he lost his Dad I can only imagine how that feels for you all, it could be connected him being upset , have you checked out if he had any bladder infection,. When you say he gets on with your husband is he good with your son, plays games, does things with him,, kind to him not hard on him , could you say what the dynamics are in the family .Are there any new siblings , as that can be the cause of some issues ,older children get jealous ..
