I think you answered your own dilema.Why potty train before your child can communicate,their potty needs.? I dont think a child can get the hang of it until their little muscles are developed. I think firstly they have to be aware they are wet,and have done a poo.I also feel it would be less forced and more fun, if the little one can ask and have questions answerd.My first was 3 when she was happy to use the pot.She had fun collecting stickers.Our two and a half yr old is just now coming in with the wipes and changing mat,so I will go along with this until she is ready to try the pot.She does have it,but spends more time playing with it and her dolls.I would always follow your childs lead,they will push it themselves when they feel confident.Good luck.Luv Winnie.

My little man is two and is the same he will not use the potty but the other day he followed daddy into the toilet and then wanted to copy daddy so we are going to get a step so he can go whenever dady does and maybe he will finally get the idea hope this helps.
