What's the difference?

On my walk home from work this morning, I watched the interaction between 7yr son and 40 yr old mother and this made me think of shit.  He was being a little shit and she was doing the same.

What's the difference between stool and feces?  We use the term "stool" and the verb "stooling" at the hospital.
This is what I found on www.m-w.com:

Stool - 3 a : a seat used while defecating or urinating b : a discharge of fecal matter

Feces - bodily waste discharged through the anus : EXCREMENT
