[quote=Anonymous]While the portable potties/potty inserts are a great tool if that's what your kid needs, for many kids (and I say this as a former nanny who has potty trained twins of both genders) they just need to feel stable. Buy a pack of lysol wipes and clean the seat, pull their undies and pants down to the tops of their shoes (but not off) and set them perpendicular on the seat, so that their butt is resting partly on one side and their feet are sticking over the other side. They can use their hands to feel more stable. You can still hold on to them by the arms to be extra sure they don't slip, but they should be pretty secure. Keep hand sanitizer at the ready and clean their and your hands the second they are off the toilet (before pulling up pants/undies) so that their hands are at least sort of clean in case they touch their face before you can get to the sink.
