The Potty-Training Learning Process

     Well, it's that time again. Potty training time. I say that with about as much excitement as I do about going to the dentist. We are potty training our almost-three-year-old boy. He is showing all of the readiness signs, and has pee-peed in the potty a handful of times, and according to all of the online quiz things he is ready. I took like 15 different ones *just* to be sure.      Please tell me I am not alone. Potty-training prep has become chaos.You take the quizzes and read the articles and fill your amazon shopping cart up with ways to train your child in a day, and movies starring Elmo and books that make flushing noises. You fill your mason jar full of skittles and put it on the bathroom shelf.(Only give 1 for pee-pee and 2 for poo... be careful because you don't want to promote childhood obesity) If you are feeling really creative, you may even make a chart and get fun stamps and maybe a prize chest or whatever else people say you should bribe your child with.
