Childish?

Poo is used in the UK by the NHS to describe faeces and bowel movement. They do so because it's clearer and a more normal term than faeces. For example, see this page on constipation: [1]. I don't think that "childish" is any longer a correct way to describe the word. Maybe informal? 84.13.25.160 23:01, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Like "-ass" vs "ass" (discussed above), this must be intended to cover examples like the "Inky poo, your nose is blue" cite currently in the entry -poo, where "poo" occurs without any hyphen, set off by spaces. I think we need to have something at poo to cover that, since someone who reads "inky poo", "Pammy poo" (etc) in a book and doesn't know what it means can be expected to look up poo, not -poo, since poo is what actually occurs in the book. - -sche (discuss) 01:41, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
