Okay? So you handle the underlying problem then. I don't understand why you think that the existence of a problem means someone can't handle it.

I'm not saying I agree with them, but I think they're saying that for this particular symptom to manifest, the problem has existed, unchecked, for quite a while, and that's why their cat owner/parenting skills might be questionable.

That would be a fair point to make if it applied.

I can only really speak with any confidence on the parenting side of things, and I can tell you that peeing on the ground is a perfectly normal occurrence for a kid who's undergoing potty training. As for cats, what I've gathered through osmosis from other cat owners is that the moment something happens to their litter box, they'll stop using it. There's probably other problems that would have earlier warning signs, but I would expect many to have no earlier signs than peeing in random places.

I guess you're a bot or some sort of NPC. Farewell.
