[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see why some people might think that a policy of having kids toilet trained might sound punitive but seriously, folks, these are three year olds. Unless they have some physical or social problems there is NO REASON why a three year old shouldn't be toilet trained. I imagine that schools have this policy to encourage lazy parents to train their kids. Our son will be the youngest in his class (birthday end of September) but he's been toilet trained for over a year now. And at night time for more than six months. He was not "advanced" in any way. The reason he was potty trained "early" is because we, as parents, made an effort to actually train him before he turned two. We did it in three days and have never used pull-ups. There is no reason why the rest of you can't do this! (Though I do agree that wiping skills take some practice).[/quote] My kid was reading before 3. We just provided some books and answered a few questions and we had an early reader. Seriously, there is no reason why the rest of you can't do this! We, as parents, just made an effort to provide books and to sit and read with DC. The rest of you must be lazy. Oh, and DC wasn't fully potty trained till 4th birthday and still has skid marks in late elementary school. Some kids really do just develop differently, no matter what YOU do. [/quote]
