My 5 Year Old Keeps Shitting Himself

He started Kindergarten five days a week, roughly 6.5 hours 5 days a week. He'd been going to preschool twice a week, about 9 hours a day for over two years before that. He goes potty at school just fine, no accidents per his teacher. Kindergarten started a few days after the first accident.

I thought maybe regression too but he still pees on the potty without hesitation. He seems to really worry about missing out. After another talk with him, the accident this morning was because he didn't want to miss the bus. I explained that he still got to school just fine and even if he did miss the bus, we'd always make sure he got there. The incident this evening was yet again playing with cars and not wanting to get up. Our place is small, it takes a minute to get from his room to the bathroom.

The kids are 28 months apart and he had a major regression when his little brother came along. Went from peeing on the potty pretty regularly to diapers for over another year. One day shortly after being moved to the classroom with the older kids everything just clicked and he'd been fine since.
