[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is about pooping at the playground. Getting your potty out and letting your kid poop wherever he feels like it is gross. If you can't manage the poop training so that this isn't an issue you either suck at potty training or your kid is too young. The nannies can stop patting themselves on the back if they consider that a success. I potty trained my own kids and never had to bring a potty everywhere to enable spontaneous public pooping. Get real.[/quote] A toddler can use a travel potty discretely, off to the side, to pee or poop. It’s really no big deal. I doubt anyone noticed. They’re two years old. [/quote] They poop once a day. This isn't some insurmountable task. Your kid is not potty trained if this is so hard to manage. Put him in diapers until you're over that hump.[/quote] I’m not against portable potties for pee but yes, it’s odd to me you’d need them for poop. Part of the way I knew DD was ready to train was that she was going into another room to poop in private. It’s animal instinct, actually— many animals instinctively seek privacy to defacate. I wonder if one reason a lot of kids develop problems around pooping during potty training is that they are being encouraged to poop in front of other people, including peers on the playground. Forget how other people will experience this— I think it’s weird for the kids.[/quote]
