my son is potty trained but i only have one problem.

HOW DO I GET HIM TO WIPE HIMSELF

when he uses the bathroom i dont go with him only because he likes his privacy.i have tried staying in the bathroom while he goes but he constantly repeats "no mommy" and will hold his poop or pee until he is alone.i even tried waiting outside the door to catch him but his is so quick.telling him to call me when hes done doesnt work at all. so when he does go to the bathroom to poop i never know until after when i smell the foul smell coming from him. which cause him to go through under wear maybe 3 pair at the most a day. i even taught him how to wipe but i came to the conclusion that he doesnt like to or simply just forget. what else can i do??

I would leave wet wipes next to him or hand them to him on the way to the bathroom and just calmly remind him.
