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 🙃
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
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?
Enjoying some fun in the sun ☀ Don’t come for me about him not wearing a life jacket. I don’t want to hear it. He was fine 🙄
i will seriously pay a grand to anyone who can come potty train my son, omg.. i’m about to pull my hair out.

Have you tried sign language

We’re actually working on some signs but all he does is all done(consistently) and more(not consistent)

When you talk to him use your hands. My daughter talks real well but she still points down 👇 and tells me pee pee mom pee pee.

Pull-ups are actually pretty hard to pull up and down without help, so he will probably still need help at school, but it’ll definitely be easier than diapers. At 2 years old I’m sure the teachers are already taking the kids at regular intervals to sit on the potties, at least that’s how it is at my daughter’s school. But if he needs to go he will need to make a sign of some kind. Maybe point down to his pants, or point to the bathroom. I’m sure he will develop his own sign.

He’s in a in home day care so she doesn’t force Potty training. When they are ready or the parents tell us they are potty training then we go through putting them on the potty every 30 minutes

@bubbys.mommy, oh i see. Well the adults will need to pay attention to signs that he needs to go. My daughter is 4, has been speaking in full sentences since 2.5 and knows fully well when she needs to go, yet she still holds it and won’t tell me when she has to go. But I can tell when she’s holding it so I’ll ask her to go when I know she has to. We can’t rely on the kids to always tell us, whether they can speak or not.
