[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are middle schoolers, but when they went to a preschool that required the children to be toilet trained, we were told that 3 accidents in a semester and the child would be removed from the program. They did occasionally stretch to four if there were extenuating circumstances, but it was written into the contract that we signed. Daycares and preschools should just write this into the contracts and then you don't have to deal with people like the unreasonable dad. And the appropriate response is that if his son is having such terrible accidents, the family should purchase less expensive underwear and they should work on improving the child's toilet training.[/quote] Said the parent of two neurotypical children, who clearly never dealt with a child with special needs. Some programs have rules on toilet training and those immediately exclude any child with special needs. Kid has ASD? ADHD? Anxiety? Sensory issues? Apparently these kids don’t deserve a place in school with your typically developing child. Newsflash - some kids train late because of developmental challenges or disabilities that you can’t see. Rigid one size fits all rules do not serve all children and only exclude those that are the ones who need more help and support. As a mom who toilet trained my eldest at 2.5 and am struggling with a 3 year old who refuses to train because of sensory issues, I hate parents like you. NeverMind that we have been to many specialists and therapists and our pediatrician says not to train until we are ready - meanies like you just want to blame, blame, blame. [/quote]
