[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3.5 year old plays in her room until about 8:30am. I get up at 8am to get ready and make coffee before I go and get her. We lock her door at night, so she stays safe in there (she has a travel potty in there that we just clean out every day). [/quote]

Ummmmm. This is bizarre. [/quote]

Yeah. I locked my kids in too by turning the doorknobs around because they'd try to climb over the gate at the top of the steps. But that ended by the time they could navigate the steps, well before 2 and well before nighttime potty training.[/quote]

That's nice. She's on a separate floor from us and it works for us. [b]I hope you don't teach your kids to be this judgmental[/b]. [/quote]

np Everyone is judgmental.  Even you!  Btw, I agree it is bizarre to lock your dd in her room![/quote]

I haven't judged anyone. You're all the ones being bitches about doing something her pediatrician recommended and that she seems perfectly happy about.[/quote]

I'm personally being judgmental about the potty, not the room locking per se. Why is your kid using a potty at 3 1/2? So yes, stop locking her so she can use the toilet like a normal preschooler![/quote]

She uses a regular toilet during the day. We are not comfortable having her use the bathroom on her own. She's on a different floor from us, which has its own bathroom.

So yeah -- please stop judging. [/quote]

Np here. Do you have a monitor to hear her? If not, add me to the list of those judging you.

What happens when she wakes up ill, wet, in pain etc. She has to sit there crying until you are ready to get her? I thought she was in a room next door to you and you could easily hear her.[/quote]

Of course we have a monitor! WTF. [/quote]
