[quote=Anonymous]That’s common in many cultures. My kids were trained by 18 months. However I think the difference is between what you would consider trained at that age and at age 5. I just mean they were in underwear, not that they could wipe themselves. At that age the goal is mainly to get them out of diapers and aware with some control. You have to set reasonable expectations of how often they’ll go, how much warning they will give, and setbacks. For me it was totally worth it to see their confidence and not be dealing with the psychological difficulties of training at 3 when a kid is attached to their diaper and runs to poop under a table. But you can just give it a try and see if it works for you and the kid. Check out How We Montessori or similar for the Montessori guides, some of that might be helpful.[/quote]
