I found that with my kids, training my son was a lot easier than training my daughter and I can only imagine that with having a developmental disability tossed into the mix, it's going to be a lot worse. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps Patti's suggestion will work - might be worth a shot, right?Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05698969349369789642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-6713684867761623872007-08-08T09:03:00.000-04:002007-08-08T09:03:00.000-04:00I was extraordinarily fortunate in that most of my...I was extraordinarily fortunate in that most of my son's potty training was accomplished at the daycare. That sounds terrible, doesn't it? But I was a single mom (still am), working full-time, and he was about 22 months or so, if I recall, when the daycare staff and I started working on "housebreaking"... don't remember at what age he accomplished it, but it seemed awfully easy. Looking back, it's kinda scary how few details of it I actually remember. Makes me wonder if I was there at all!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-44480866332779040952007-08-08T01:06:00.000-04:002007-08-08T01:06:00.000-04:00jen,ready your blog tonite made me giggle and thin...jen,<BR/>ready your blog tonite made me giggle and think back to my potty days with my three kids. The boys were easy....just toss a few fruit loops or cheerios into the toilet and tell them to hit the target! Worked for both my boys! My little girl was different. I had a potty chair...she refused to sit on it. Bought a plain plastic toilet insert for our regular toilet and then let her pick out a set of stickers (she picked tweety) and then let her decorate her big girl seat insert! That solved the problem. Right away she associated that it was "her" special seat. Good Luck to you and Mandy!
