I think it works!
Having poop sitting in the toilet STINKS. It makes sense that it would help to flush it down.
Like dog poop. If you step in dog poop, it stinks forever as long as it's on your shoes.
I don't understand this.
How long does it take you people to take a shit?
It's out, you wipe, and then flush.
matter of a minute at most

Women who nit-pick over their husbands' parenting skills are often the same ones who complain incessantly when they gradually disengage.

Yeah, right. Of all the things to criticize a spouse about, you choose an effort to instill some basic manners? It makes you seem like the hyper-critical spouse. If you don't lighten up, you're the one who is going to get, pun intended, dumped.

So, you planned to try to convince your son that his sh*t don't stink? He'd have grown up to be a walking cliche.
If you think his expectations are nuts, then you might want to offer another example. This doesn't sound rigid to me at all.

What's wrong with a courtesy flush? I'd much prefer that over the poop smell wafting out into the hallway. You sound like the crazy and rigid one.

My child would poop while I took a bath. I was thrilled when, at three, she discovered the courtesy flush all on her own.

Lighten up, OP. Perhaps you've heard of preschool? Your precious darling will be exposed to horrors there like fart jokes and "see food" and other shocking compulsions.

You seem way too upset over this. I would have laughed like crazy at that. I think it's hilarious!

I thought that was a joke from austin powers! Explaining the humor in austin powers to 3 year old is priceless. Teaching kid to be an obsessive over flushing self conscious dork is not good.

This is what husbands do, OP. It's in the male gene. My DH is the same way. Get over it. Your kids will be fine.

I have a 3 year old and a 5 year old and they can smell poop or farts or any other bad odors by themselves. No one had to point it out to them.
