[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This post seems full of defensive people who had kids who trained really late.

Yes disabilities can cause issues, but the majority of the time I’ve found it’s bc the parents are undisciplined, kinda lazy (expect the child to figure it out on their own rather than put real effort into it), and are not able to push through their child’s resistance or challenges. I’m certainly not a perfect parent myself, but there is something a little disturbing about 4 year olds still pooping in a diaper [/quote]

NP. My daughters were trained at 2.5 and just shy of 3 years, thanks.

Anyway, I have this thing where I realize that a lot of people in this world have special needs and medical issues, and none of that is my business unless a parent wants to share a diagnosis with me.

There’s something a little different about grown adults in 2021 not realizing that special needs and disabilities are not always visible. [/quote]

+1. My boys all took initiative and were potty trained fairly early, around 2 years, but god knows I have struggled in other areas. You can’t know what another family is working with or what challenges they are facing with potty training or any other behavioral/developmental issue. My boys were all late talkers and the amount of people that suggested I read to them as though I wasn’t already doing that (and so much more!) was ridiculous. Why assume the parents are lazy and not putting in effort? [/quote]
