So this morning I had a parent announce that she brought her just turned two year girl to me in panties. She wants me to put her on the potty every half hour. The dcg doesn't ask for the potty yet. She has excellent verbal skills for just turning two but doesn't know to ask for the potty yet. I have carpet all over my house and I have five other children in my care. Putting her on the potty every half hour to me isn't potty training. The child should be asking for the potty, not me trying to catch her for potty. I do appreciate the parents trying early but if the child doesn't even ask yet she isn't ready. She does go occasionally when I put her on the potty but she is no way ready for panties yet. She's always wet after naps and is usually wet whenever it's bathroom time for everyone. I do have in my handbook that children need to be dry for two weeks in pull-ups before attempting underwear. I find this frustrating. Just venting.
