she is 2 years old, and she's ready to potty train. she will sit on the potty and pee all on her own when she has to go, but she wont let me pull down her pants to pee. she starts crying and pulling her pants back up. when i pull her pants back up, she sits on the potty and does her thing. she understands what the potty is for, but she dosent understand she has to sit on it bare butted. what can i do to make her not so scared to pee with her pants off?

She's just not entirely ready. We went through that with our daughter. Just be patient and keep encouraging her to sit on the potty to take care of her business, even if it is in a diaper. Get a toy potty and a baby doll that "pees" and show her how the baby doll does it. When the baby doll is done, "praise" the baby doll and tell her what a good job she did. But don't compare her to the baby doll or other kids who are potty trained, or that will make her feel bad. Good Luck, I'm sure she'll be potty-trained soon.

Without sitting on the potty, you might try allowing her to walk around without a diaper for a bit each day. After several days, try to coax her to sit on the pottie. Just remember not to force anything, they have to want to use the potty. If it becomes a power struggle, it's best to take a break (a few weeks) and try again later.
Mine loved getting a sticker on their hand when they sat on the pottie.

There is a video called Potty Power that you can get a Babies-R-Us. My little girl absolutely loved it. Although we are still struggling with potty training, the video really got her excited about it. It shows other kids sitting on their potty chairs, and songs about being a big kid, and washing hands. Although I would warn you that it will probably drive you crazy.

Show her how to do it when u use the bathroom. Make the bathroom comfortable for her. As you pull your pants down tell her it. Say this is how we go potty and u first have to and so on.Children learn by what they see. Good luck.Oh be very patient. She will catch on in her own time.There is no hurry.Good luck

maybe you could try by having her a little potty next to your regular one and you go at the same time. this will show her how u do it and maybe she will try to be like mommy. and u dont want to push her or make her. the best thing i have found to work with 2 year olds is to make them think its their idea or they are doing it on their own. its a very stubborn age, im sure u know this! :)

To get her to feel comfortable on the pot with her pants off or down - I would put her on the pot @ bathtime; she should get used to it that way. Maybe change her pants another time or 2 per day and put her on the pot then too. Don't be too concerned; it does not take much to train girls. To train my daughter - all I had to do was sit her on the pot once!!! GOOD LUCK.

this is all you got to do, get a belt and start whipping her everytime she pees on herself. First pull down her pants then you can hit her... just kidding:) I actually got no advise but to say that soon your daughter will get uncomfortable when she pees on herself and that she will start using the potty.
