My 31/2 yr old daughter started out well with potty training. We started her at about 30mos. old. She would receive stickers with every sucessful usage. She was happy...we were happy. Then, all of a sudden, she demanded to wear a diaper all the time. If I tried to put panties on her she would cry and cry and throw a tantrum demanding that she wear a diaper. Now, if one of her friends comes over, who uses the potty, she will take off her diaper and use the potty (sometimes the big toilet!) But after they leave she wants a diaper. She has never had an accident & she can use the big toilet. No problems pulling pants up and down. She knows what to do...she just doesn't want to. Has anyone had this problem or have any idea how to get her to give up her diaper. We have tried rewards. We have brought her "pretty panties". We have used the "big girl" speech. She doen't care about any of this. She has an 18mo. old little sister. could this be a problem? Maybe she wants to stay the baby.
