+1, fully half of all kids train after turning 3. And the percent of kids not trained by kindergarten is quite small. So those 3 year olds are successful.

It's parental preference and yes, you can absolutely do harm by training too early.

20 months isn’t too early. It’s been done for centuries. You’re just silly.

20 months is too early and if you want to stick what’s been done for centuries for health related issues, you’d be dead.

Potty training a 1 year old, I don’t think so. Go back to your 1700’s where they didn’t bathe daily for centuries.

Why don’t you care about our environment? Or climate change?

There’s absolutely zero evidence to support that nonsense.

Why do you have an electronic device that you are using that is harmful to the environment? Why? Don’t you care?

Neither do you have evidence to support your “argument.”
Btw, there is evidence if you just do a small search on when it’s appropriate from a medical standpoint. So yeah, there is evidence.

For centuries people didn't have modern plumbing or underwear. Kids ran around naked and learned to go behind a tree. People had lower standards of cleanliness and hygiene. Learning to use a modern toilet is a totally different deal and it actually makes sense that most kids take a bit longer because going to the bathroom sitting down is a weird modern convenience that we force on them, which is why doing so very early is entirely about parental preference and can cause issues. Toilet put kids in an unnatural position to eliminate.

You really are twisting yourself into knots because you're ashamed you waited until 3.5 years old to potty train.
