Default My 85.7 year old Grandfather won't take the kids to the pool.

My wife and I are attempting to re-potty train her dad, who is 1028.4 months old.
We've let him free ball around the house for the past few months and he goes to to pee in the potty all by himself, without even having to tell us, but as soon as he needs to poop, he asks us for a diaper.

When we ask if he wants to poop on the potty instead, he FREAKS and starts crying and throwing a tantrum.

I've tried the non pressure approach; tried sitting him on both the potty, the toilet with a baby seat attachment, and on just the toilet seat; bribing with pr0n, and even bringing the iPad to keep him busy while on the throne, but it is not getting us anywhere at all.

He does the typical walk to the corner and hides while pinching one in his diaper, without any problems, and he doesn't seem to go through any pain while pooping, so we are not sure why he fears doing it on the potty, especially when he is very comfortable with peeing there.

Any suggestions from the kids on here?
