has anyone experienced a child who doesn't want to use the potty? My son fully understands the process of using the potty and knows when he has to go but he just doesn't want to use the potty. He loves diapers/pullups 😐. I have tried getting him his favorite underwear, a potty with one of his favorite characters, I've tried just sitting him on it with a book as well as reading the potty book. I even took a suggestion from our pediatrician to just put underwear on him without anything else so that when he had an accident it would be uncomfortable and encourage him to use the potty.... nope. He just pooped in them and didn't say a word until I smelled it... 😞
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
Need some serious tips on potty training! Walker knows when he pees and poops but when i have his diaper off he just pees wherever and then wants his diaper back on 🙃
Idk how to potty train my son Please. Help. Me. My son will be 3 in august and i have no idea how to get him to want to potty train. Every now and agin ill get him to sit on the potyy but if its not on his terms trying to convince him is impossible. Even with treats. Hell sit and get down immediately thinking he can have his treat then becUse he sat on the potty. How can i praise him for just sitting without giving him his actually potty treats? Do i just use smaller prizes or treats foe just sitting but if he goes he gets a big treat? Do i jist put him in big boy undies for a day and see if that doesnt make him not wanna potty in his diaper. God someone please save me from my own confusion. I have no idea what to do and my almost 3 year old is stubborn and isnt going to be easy to potty train i dont think
We've decided to start potty training our 22 month old since he can pull down his pants, we've thrown ourselves into it. Now the question is, can 22 month olds be manipulative 😳? This child is something else. If we're having him do something he doesn't want to do, like going down for a nap, he'll start saying potty, if we let him go, he just runs all over the place, I guess forgetting he wanted to use the potty 🤦🏿 ♀ Is this a thing? I just go get him and have him sit on the potty and I tell him, "if you say you want to use the potty, then you must use the potty." I feel like I should work on him not "telling lies." But idk what this behavior is. Can 22 month olds be manipulative, and a liar? Someone told me "he's intelligent to know that saying potty will get him out of something he doesn't want to do." I say... this some bull... 😑😒 Another thing, when I try to get him to look at me when I'm trying to tell him he did something wrong, he does not make eye contact. I get down on my knee in front of him, he looks away, I cup his chin with my hand to have him face me, or say "Nordo, look at mommy please," he averts his eyes... you guys 😓 somedays I feel like he's a sociopath 😬 I don't say that out loud though 😅 ugh, I know, I'm CRAZY, but man... what are the chances? lol

I think thats super awesome you're letting him decide when he's ready. I never thought of doing that down the line.
