Toilet Training

I will try to make this advice sound a bit better when i have the time to(this advice was done when i was new to Minti and didn't know that much about writing advice but now i know how to write advice and thankyou so much.I love Minti now but am just a bit to busy to get on here but i manage to go on Ebay because i have to to get the baby stuff).

Every child is different and will be trained at different stages in life. Yeah, i agree with mumto4. the advice is very vague, and don't really understand it. Not all children, and parents will follow these guidelines. Every child is different as i mentioned before, and i think if every child is toilet trained by the time they're 3 and a half, what's the problem. But my children have always gone straight to the toilet, and none of this potty, or pullups. It's just a waste of time and money from my point of view, but the potty and pullups are usefull for other parent's. Maybe if you expanded the advice more, it would've been an excellent article.

That is a but unusual.The elder one still in nappies and the younger one out of them.How unusual.

Hi there. You have a great outline of what can be achieved by what age and some of us here on Minti would love to be on that kind of timeline. However your advice is vague on the "how to" area.  For example, at 18 months, telling my son to go on the potty is going to be a bit over his head... unless I've worked on getting him to understand the word what the word "potty" means.

I think if you provide more detail, you'll find that your advice will get ratings higher than average.

Well just let them go in pull-ups if they want too but make a reward chart and if they get ten stickers they get a treat.That will make him want to go.

I am trying this now. What do you suggest for a two year old who will sit on the potty for ages but won't do anything until they get off?
