I hate potty training!!

[playfelt]

If only that was possible. Every new crop of kids I get seems to get worse and worse. The last two years I have had to resort to punishments to convince kids to potty train before heading off to JK. They just didn't care. Parents were at their wits ends with potty training as well as a lot of other things. I just made life difficult for them till they figured out that using the potty was a lot less hassle than what I put them through if they didn't. It is crazy. Kids are more capable than we give them credit for and we do them a diservice when we hold them back. There is a difference between pushing when they aren't ready and a child just doing it because that is what they know is expected of them end of story kind of thing. Yes I would go back to the way care used to be and I have been doing this for 26 years so that is a lot of years to work with,lol.
