[quote=Anonymous]I fully admit that I was horrible at potty-training both my kids. Luckily, we're well past the potty training stage by now and I have no need/desire to improve those parenting skills. My first DC had bladder control, knew how to use the potty, did so at home, but was completely resistant at school. Keeping him home did nothing to improve his ability to use the potty at school. I feel fortunate that his PK3 teacher was willing to work with him and me and we tried various solutions. After one-month of stress, ugh, he had a very successful year. His pottying had nothing to do with being otherwise developmentally ready for school. Rules about potty-readiness, number of accidents, etc. only added to our stress and did nothing to solve the problem. DCPS's approach seems to have become more child-focused in the many years that have passed since our PK3 experience, and I am fully in support of that.[/quote]
