[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow what judgmental comments.

there are lots of ways to parent and lots of ways to address potty training.  Given there are endless books on the subject I suspect the one view some of these posters may have is not necessarily the only view.

have you considered that your MB/DB may be considering your convenience and not having to clean your car or you having a child pee on your shoes or lap in making this decision about a pull up.

I am the OP. I posted this because I am a nanny to a VERY excelled 2.5 year old. When I first became her nanny she was 1.5, very excelled then too, & was ready for potty training..but her senile parents would sit her on the potty,hear her say "I don't like potty" & allow her to get up. I AUTOMATICALLY begin enforcing her to sit on the potty. A week after her 2nd birthday she was & still is potty trained.

HOWEVER..she sleeps with her parents. So if she has to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night or during nap time, they'll leave a pull up on her...if she wakes up & says she has to go they'll tell her go in her Pull Up because they are too darn lazy to get up so she can get to her potty. She asks for permission to use the potty when I'm around and that makes me CRINGE!!! I tell her never ask if you can go to the potty when I'm around..just go! She also wakes up during nap time to go..so I know she's capable of not needing a Pull up during sleep.

Her parents just keep buying the darn Pull Ups. They also refer to them as diapers which also pisses me off. [/quote]
