Does anyone know why my children act extremely silly a few hours before they need to have a bowel movement?

Author: Has anyone else experienced this? I have two boys who are both smart and confident children (I don’t normally brag because I think it is obnoxious and doesn’t benefit them to constantly hear how wonderful they are) that sometimes act extremely silly/borderline naughty an hour or two before they need to have a bowel movement. It seems like they can’t control their silliness when this occurs and it becomes a problem if we are someplace like a sport activity or a Scout meeting. Any ideas? Serious answers would be greatly appreciated.
It is similar to how most children act when they lack sleep (mine both still nap and they are 5 & 7). If they haven’t eaten in awhile or they eat sugary food that has burned off my kids also act silly in a similar manner (low blood sugar….similar to the hormone answer???). Anyone?

yea it sounds crazy but i have seen it..my nephew acts weird when he was to have a BM…my best understanding and answer is either hormones or bodily response…after all BMs are just the muscles in the body moving along excriment..so they might feel the need to expend energy in some form or fashion..my nephew gets up and paces the room and gets anxious or starts gettin all jumpy….as a matter of fact now i think of it…so does my dog…sounds weird but it’s true…maybe if you asked them to please go at specific times you could almost train their bodies to be on a schedule…most people have schedules such as that in life…believe it or not…even elderly people act this way..they get odd behavior around the BM hours of their days…dunno if i helped but there it is …
HOrmones rise sometimes in people when they are in need of dooing it it is not polite behavior
