5 year old still not potty trained. refuses to poop on the potty and pees in his room. has devolopmental delay,but could it be something more?

Potty training: Is often part of global delay. It is easier to wait until he is ready and use pull ups to make it easier for you. Regular bathroom trips after breakfast and dinner will attempt to establish a pattern that over time should work. If he is constipated treat that so it is easy for him to pass stool. All the best, it will happen.
