Assuming that there are no physical problems, it could simply be a control issue. The question in this case would be is it worth the fight right now. The adults want him trained, he doesn't. Whether he's physically not ready or behaviorally not ready might be irrelevant. Maybe backing off for a while might be in everyone's interest. It might seem like giving in but, really, he's winning by going in his diaper and not on the toilet anyways. You might continue having him sit on the toilet regardless but downplay the issue. If he's late training so be it but he will train eventually. I've heard of other kids his age with the same issue and sometimes backing off actually does wonders.
