[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My just-over three year old is potty trained, except I wipe his butt when he poops. A few days ago he said he wanted to wipe his own butt and I said no, and he said his teacher sometimes has him wipe his butt at school. I was horrified, because it doesn't seem like he is old enough to do it properly, but am I off base? How can you tell child is ready to start doing this? Is there a particular age when this is recommended? [/quote] You’re way off base and have zero reason to be horrified. All the preschools we looked at and the one we chose insisted the kids be able to toilet themselves completely. DS was just 2.5 when he started and was able to wipe himself. [/quote]
