Looking for some advice.
I'm adding Potty Training to my guide book and going with what seems to be the standard with most daycare. That it starts at home and that I will support but dc comes in Pull ups till able to stay dry and verbally tell me that they need to use the bathroom then underwear is acceptable. Not in those words but you get my meaning, but this isn't my issue or problem right now and not why I'm changing my guide book.
I have parents who started potty training, child was ready at 3 yrs and taking to it (but If your a parent you know this milestone isn't easy and can take time and a LOT of effort) needles to say they gave up. Also the child is only part time so its impossible to keep up any consisting to it here at daycare to teach it (which why it has to be done at home) . Child is now turning 4 in a couple of months and still coming in pull ups (which don't hold much) and child also now refuses to use the potty always says the they don't need to (child just doesn't want to give up playtime) specially with having to do poop.
I brought up the issue with the mom and her answer was well he refuses poop on potty so I'm not pushing him and he won't be in pull up at the age of 25 years old. :huh: !?!? So she's leaving it because he won't poop ? I don't believe it because he's not going pee on the potty either? I know she's right you can't push a child to poop on potty but you need to still do the peeing otherwise the pooping will never come.
Sorry but maybe Im wrong in this but it's starting to gross me out to do pull up changes for this child, the child is big so therefor their waste is too.
So Im wondering if anyone has in their contracts that a child must be potty trained by well I was thinking 3 1/2 yrs. Or that are at least actively in the process. What do you think is that to harsh?
