Our daughter had a LOT of trouble getting the potty training down. The turning point was when we stopped using those training diapers and went straight to panties. For some reason she can not feel when she needs to go when she has the training diapers on. With panties, she feels it and runs to the potty.

Holy fuck that's too many kids. Mormon?
My kid is 2.5 and we're making progress.. Goal is to be potty trained by 3.. With that many kids, I'd expect you to be giving me advice |

We have six. The youngest two are 2 and 5. Both boys. Both pee but the 5 year old is just starting to poop where he should. And the other 4 were all potty trained early. Who knows. good luck with it! |

my 2nd daughter is 3. She has been more than ready for a while now but also refused.
We said screw it and put panties on her and no diaper. She used a diaper to basically be lazy. She flipped out at first but was potty trained in one day. We also bought her a few of the toys she wanted, luckily they were cheap (blind bags). If she is successful she got a toy. My first daughter was real easy, just bribed her with candy.

My daughter didn't want to potty train.
She'd cry every time we showed her the little seat. When we asked her why, she sobbed "It's my potty and I'll cry if I want to". On a more serious note, we put her on the potty for 5 minutes at the top of the hour, every hour. If she went she didn't have to wait for the full 5 minutes. |

Don't sweat it man. My neice didn't potty train till she was 8 years old. (Yes you read that right) Her parents were morons and didn't push it. These people are behind about 2 decades and so is their daughter. Unfortunately they have 2 girls and 2 boys. Only 1 girl wants to be normal.

I've still only changed one on this kid (can't remember his name right now) and that was because he had an assplosion while he was home with me. I put him in the dishwasher I think. |

I guess I"m lucky. We put our kid in regular underwear at 1.5 years. The kid is almost 2.5 now and will go pretty reliably on her own. She doesn't crap her pants any more, but will on occasion piss her pants.

Mine are 21 and 17 now but each had their own challenges. #1 on occasion would crap in someone's yard, needed to go so dropped trou and went.
They learn when their ready and your not going to be able to do anything to force it. Training diapers/ pull ups do make things worse though. They're so absorbent kids can't feel whet they've gone. |

Meh.
Sooner or later, they'll get it. You WILL come to terms with your bladder & bowels, or you'll spend your entire life stinking of waste. It ain't like there's a third alternative.  By the time they go to school, the other kids will ridicule them unmercifully.

It will work itself out. I know a guy whose kid was still shitting his pants when he was 10.
Not looking forward to it with my daughter. It's going to be a while, though. |

My stepson would pee and poop in his closet until he was almost 5. That shit drove me nearly insane. The best part was when he would scream at me when I went in to clean it up.

Today's diapers and training pants are so absorbant and comfy that kids don't mind shitting or pissing in them.
Buy him crummy cheapo diapers and training pants that do not absorb the urine or poop as well. Make bowel movements uncomfortable against his skin, and he will start to become more interested in holding it, dropping trou, and sitting on the toilet. |

Someone here, possibly Subnet I don't remember, said you take all their clothes off and make them stay that way. They'll feel uncomfortable shitting/pissing naked without a diaper or clothes and it only takes a weekend. A bunch of people chimed in and agreed it works well.

At home, longer shirt and no pants. No pants or undies or pull up. Nekked from waist down. He will know immediately when he has to go, and so will everyone else. Keep a close eye on him after meals and drinks. You will clean up a few messes, but it will be worth it.

Our daughter loved those little 'poopatrooper' toys so we made her a deal, every time she took a dump she would get one.
Yes, the name helped.

My daughter at 3 yo was the same way.
I was a single parent at that time and had to take her to day care so i could go to work. Packing diapers and clothes for her sucked. One morning i was getting pissed. I pulled out her potty and held her down on it. Told her i have plenty of time and we can do this all morning but she is not moving till she goes. She pissed and shit after about 30seconds. She came home from daycare and said no more diapers and she was a big girl. Pretty fucking awesome day. |

I made a potty chart for my son. Every 10 pees or 5 poops he got a toy. We made a colorful chart with stickers and stuff. Putting the star stickers on the chart was a great encouragement for him to use the potty. The toys didn't hurt either.

Some train earlier than others. My one son was 4 and still could't figure it out no matter what we did. What finally worked was making him go bare butt all day. Didn't take long until he caught on after that. He's an adult now and potty trained so there is hope. lol |

Do you even know their names? Damn it Big girl Hey, kid Other girl Buddy Little girl Buddy But sometimes I get them confused or think one of the neighborhood kids are one of mine. I can usually tell when I tell someone to take out the trash and the say that they don't live here. That's when I give them 'the glare' and the trash goes out anyway. One kid (I think she's mine, she looks like my wife) mentioned that her friends are scared of me. But I don't know why, I think they are all potty trained. |
