[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FTM here. I haven't potty trained my own, but I am a preschool teacher and have supported the potty training of many. I am BEGGING you to please, please, please teach your boys to pee sitting down. Seriously, you would not believe the disgusting amount of pee on the walls and floor of the bathroom in my classroom which could be prevented so easily. You can teach standing up after potty training is mastered.

If you must have your boy standing up, make sure he know to pull his pants past his knees. I can't tell you how many times I've seen an arc of urine not make it into the toilet because that penis was pointing straight up. Also make sure he has a hand on his penis when peeing.

But seriously, just have hims it. Way easier for public restrooms anyways. [/quote]

This poster nailed it. Don't be in a hurry for him to pee while standing. And once he does start standing, you're going to need wipes handy to clean the pee off the toilet and floor daily. [/quote]
