Not enough fiber: Likely your godson does not have enough fiber in his diet. The best remedy for this is to increase the amount of water ( 4-5 glasses a day), and increase this fiber content. For example more vegetables, high fiber cereals, etc. Medications (eg. stool softeners) are rarely needed in children.
