[quote=Anonymous]I don't think that early training is the key. My son has been in some form of potty training since 16 months (regular sitdowns on the potty in daycare for a year plus). Zero effect, didn't even play with the potty. Started peeing in the potty at 2.5 years. Pooped in his pants till 3.5 years, we tried everything - bribes, underwear, shaming, praising, you name it. He just didn't want to do it. One day shortly after 3.5 he announced he is going to poop on the potty, went to the bathroom and did it. No accidents since then. Looking back at it now, I can't believe how much stress I allowed this to cause me. Because believe me, two years later no one gives a damn when he potty trained, and even I don't anymore. This is a non-factor. [/quote]
