[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I despised having potty trained kids.  It's so annoying having to run to the bathroom every time we are in a public place.  Diapers were so easy.  [/quote]

Of course it's easier. That's why so many people wait too long to potty train - they are lazy and don't want to deal with it. How is this going against the grain?[/quote]
WTF? No. Its way easier to have potty trained kids, as long as you don't use a potty. Just teach them to use the regular toilet. Its way easier to send your kid to the bathroom than to haul around diapers. [/quote]

I have never understood this. I'm the 'freakishly early' OP. Diapers are SO easy. I carry one of each size in my purse with a small bag of wipes, hardly 'hauling'. And we never have to make unscheduled stops.

I feel like I have an irrational fear that once they are potty trained I will consistently be driving somewhere nowhere in the vicinity of a bathroom and the kids will need to pee.

I also envision this adding HOURS to road trips where we all have to stop every hour to let EVERYONE out to pee. And I have to let them touch public toilet seats? I dunno I'm dreading the whole thing. I'm dreading them BEING potty trained more than potty training them. [/quote]

OP of this thread, coming back to you - we should be best friends.

I have two less than a year apart, and I have NEVER used a diaper bag.  Always a small crossbody purse, a couple diapers and a ziploc baggie of wipes-  that's IT.  SO easy and quick.  Now mine are both potty trained and it's SO ANNOYING[/quote]
