[quote=Anonymous]How old? Tbh there are lots of ways that work and what works best really depends on each parent/kid combo. My approach is to take the old fashioned approach: start putting kid on the potty at wake up/before sleep starting around 15-18 months, switch to undies around 2 and deal with the accidents as needed and use bribery for stubborn refusal points. Kids are in daycare full time so at first I aim for trained-for-a-few-hours (mornings and evenings), then I start working up to longer periods in undies on weekends. So far it’s worked for my two kids but I get that not everyone enjoys this approach. The oh crap intensive naked all the time approach really doesn’t work for me — 100% focus attention on the potty training child is way too much pressure for both of us and impractical for managing to get normal life chores done — but I know it has worked for other people on this board so if that’s what feels right to you, hopefully they can chime in with pointers.[/quote]
