[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to potty train without all the negotiation, you start at 18 months or so. Not sure how waiting until 2.5 factored into your philosophy, but it was dumb. [/quote] I disagree! We waited until 3 and had no need to negotiate or bribe at all--he was ready, motivated, and interested.[/quote] +1[/quote] +2 and +3 (two kids). We just put our kids in underpants on their third birthdays. A couple accidents on the first day and I can count on one hand the number of daytime accidents between the two of them since day 1 for each (5 and 3.5 now). I can count total accident after day 1, including night and naps on two hands. And there was never any taking them to the bathroom every hour (or half hour! :shock:). We remind them to potty before leaving the house but that's it. Otherwise, they go when they need to go, from the beginning. [/quote]
