    Some parents boggle my mind

    I had a parent walk in this morning and tell me they started toilet training this morning!!!!! A Tuesday Morning???? Not the beginning of the long weekend but this morning .....so I begin to ask all the questions I already know the answers to....
    Me : Does he know when he has to go ?
    Parent: Umm no not really .
    Me: Ok so does he like to sit on the potty or toilet ?
    Parent: Oh no not really he just cries but try to give him a car that might work !
    Me: Does he show an interest at all?
    Parent: not really
    Me: he has a diaper on right?
    Parent: oh yes just take it off to put him on the potty several times a day
    Me : righto


    Seriously????? he is no where ready to start toilet training and here is not the place to start... He's a few weeks shy of 2.5 yrs but at the maturity level of about an 18 month old and he only says about 15 words. I guess she thinks I am going to do it for her and that's why she started today and not on sat.

    I will have to have a little chat at pick up and say nope not ready try in the sumner when you have him home for two weeks.
