[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a point to training them earlier than they want? Does potty training at 4 have any negative effect on a child?[/quote] Seriously? A 40 ish pound 4 year old who knows letters, numbers, some sight words, the words to a ton of songs, who can tell a story, knows their colors and basic math, can climb to the top of the tall slide, run and pedal a bicycle is supposed to have their mom lift their legs to their ears to wipe feces off their behind like a baby and you can't think of any reason that is not okay? We are talking healthy normal development children who are going to be in kindergarten in a year and you don't see any reason for them to learn a basic life skill, like eating with utensils and carrying their dish to the sink, using a fork and spoon, and putting themselves to sleep? The point is that a 4 year old is way too big, in all senses of their development.[/quote]
