Here it is- it has worked for my 2 kids,and others after I tell them........
1. get m and m's handy
2. get a small potty chair
3. get a couple books about potty
4. you need to be home for about 4-5 days straight
5. now you can start. let them run around bare-but
6. Set the timer for 1/2 hour. Tell him/her to sit on the potty for 5 min. (read them a book in the mean time if it's to long for them.) If they go, give lots and lots of praise!!! I mean go crazy!! Give them about 3 m and m's.
7. Set the timer for 1/2 hour
8. Avoid asking the question "you got to go potty?'
9. Timer goes off- ok! What does that mean junior? Time to go potty again he or she would say, or you say it if they don't
10. repeat process all day long. If they go # 2 in the potty, reward with a handful of m and m's. They are very colorful and kids love them!!
11. Praise praise praise. I do spank my kids for behavior problems such as lying, disobedience, and bad attitudes, but never for having an accident. If there is an accident, clean it up queitly, and don't say much at all. Remind them it's ok, but try to make it in the potty next time, or in your own words.
Good luck!!! Hope this helps you. My 2 year old girl was potty-trained in one day with the method. Took my 2 1/2 year old son a week. Leave pull-ups on them at night just in case.
p.s. if this doen't work at all, try again in a few months.
oh, books- there are lots of seseme street books on potty-training, or other kids books. Check google, or ebay

my daughter is the same way!
right now I am letting her do this so that she is comfortable with sitting on the potty and establishing a potty schedule. once that schedule is established and she knows when it will be time to go to the bathroom, I will begin removing the diaper to sit her down. if you are trying this and she is just going as soon as you get the diaper back up, try getting a cup of lukewarm water and dipping her fingers in it or running the faucet while she is on the potty. look on amazon.com or toysrus.com for potty training aids. I'm sure you will find something. good luck!!!

Your child is probably too young for potty training. As a general rule, a child will eventually use the potty, just don't force them. You could inadvertently create emotional issues the child will never recover from. I'd give your daughter until 3 years old before pressuring her. I know, it seems so old, but it really isn't. You thank me in the long run. Read all the books you want, but beleive me, when she's ready, she'll do it.

That's a good start! That's exactly how my daughter started. I really think that when she's ready, she'll take off the diaper and use the potty. I never told my daughter that she had to use it, she would watch me go and eventually, she decided she wanted to do it that way too. 1 week after her 2nd birthday, she took off the diaper and never wore another one again. Try not to force it. Let her progress at her own speed.

Stop trying to train your child like a dog. She is not ready to go on the toilet yet. If you want to when she goes to sit on the potty with her diaper on take the diaper off. About the only thing those child rearing books are good for is toilet paper. Every child is different, they grow and develop at different rates. That is why it is important for parents to have patience and not to expect their children to be just like everyone else. Children are not dolls where one is exactly liike the other one.

First of all, loosen up... he's going to be potty informed earlier than he turns 25. With mine, I allow him pee at that equal time as dad or older brother... they made it a race... and sure it used to be messy!!! You additionally ought to be inclined to allow him attempt to pass like four billion occasions an afternoon... whenever with endurance and encouragement regardless of whether or not or now not he succeeds. When he wets himself... do not even deliver it a moment idea... simply say effectively... allow's difference the ones pants and check out once more. You will pass via alot of coaching pants in an afternoon. Don't trouble striking another garments on him even as he is at dwelling... simply coaching pants. If you are not having good fortune... take a look at once more in a month or so... no rush.. it's adequate regardless of what number of different mothers youngsters are doing it. Your baby is a specific individual! All 4 of mine have been potty informed inside per week or so.

Try giving her some time, she knows what she needs to do but she might not just be ready yet. If you have older girls try having them go in with her and show here what they do. Take her potty every 30 mins or so and just let her sit and see what she does. Dont push her or it will never happen. When I trained my kids they both got a surpise everything they used the potty, I gave them crackers or honeynut in a bowl it seemed to work.
