So, my q for OP-- do your relatives even have a little potty or potty seat/step stool? If you've already potty trained your kids, I don't think it would be out of line to ask if they need any of this kind of stuff...at this age, I bet she could start doing it herself in a day with some super-fun stickers to decorate her potty and a fun aunt by her side, barring developmental issues you aren't aware of.[/quote]

OP here. I have never seen any kind of training tools at their house. I appreciate your suggestion but am admittedly afraid to take the law into my own hands. I was recently excited when they got rid of a changing station they kept in the family room. Just as I was about to ask if it meant what I thought it meant, my SIL told me my niece physically outgrew it. That is the closest I have come to a substantive conversation about it. [/quote]

Huh. It's just really foreign to me that people wouldn't even TRY to potty train their daughter before 3. Does she do all her regular well-child visits? I'd think most pediatricians would note a 3 yr old still in diapers and ask about it...

I know a lot of people are saying this is completely normal and that OP is a busybody, but this does seem odd to me. Sounds like you don't think you can do anything about it, though, OP, so I guess that's that.[/quote]
