[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depending on the disability, if being toilet trained is an appropriate developmental expectation, I might look at consequences rather than punishment. Poop in your pants? Clean it up, clean yourself, change and put dirty clothes on to wash. Wet when we are at the playground? We go home and change, we don't bring a change of clothes to facilitate. I'm amazed at how well my kid has done with this approach. Bladder of steel sometimes, but minimal accidents.[/quote] This seems like a reasonable approach. No punishment, no candy bribes. Do your pediatrician and other doctors/therapists/etc think that being toilet trained is an appropriate developmental expectation? What do they say? [/quote] Having a kid clean himself while trying to potty train is punishment. No kid wants to shit themselves.[/quote]
