up to you. You have been warned. If the panties get soaked, don’t be
attached to them; ditch them.
Can you convince me he’s ready?
My final answer: no. I wrote this book. I’ve heard it makes sense. I
cannot convince you that your child is ready. My final answer is that
i f you doubt it, it will look like a hot mess. If you are unsure, your
child will be unsure. If she is unsure, you will be cleaning up a lot of
pee.
Can’t I try rewards? They worked for my
neighbor/friend/sister . . .
My final answer: this is up to you. I don’t care how you do this. I
cannot help you clean up the mess the rewards create. If you end up
in a huge power struggle, that’s on you to fix. It’s not just a potty
training issue. I see full-blown disasters on top of potty training
nightmares because of rewards. You think you want to try, go for it. I
have warned you.
I already started PTing with rewards. How do I stop?
My final answer: just stop. You can explain it to your child or you
can just say, “Nope. We don’t do that anymore. Mom and Dad go pee
and poop in the toilet. This is what people do. We don’t give rewards
anymore.”
I cannot wake up in the middle of the night for night training.
What can I do?
