[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn’t uncommon the last few years to have kids who show up to kindergarten wearing diapers or Pull Ups. My daughter who teaches kindergarten has had a few students in the last few years who haven’t been trained. In one case, there was a developmental delay but in the other cases, the parents just said the kid didn’t want to learn. The parents did send in Pull Ups but the kids were expected to change them.

Hmm. This may be the consequence of the bad advice parents get about “not pushing potty training - he will do it when he is ready!” My kid definitely would never have been ready. [b]I got the clear message that potty training by 3 was expected for preschool so I got “Oh Crap” and took a few days off work to do it.[/b] If as a society we are no longer telling parents that potty training is something they need to be actively doing by a certain age, some will fall through the cracks.

Oh how naive you are if you think that's all it should take to potty train any kid.[/quote]
