Potty training, or toilet training, is the process of teaching children to control their bladder or bowel movements so they can use the toilet and no longer have to wear diapers. The process of potty training usually begins when a child is between two and three years old.

At what age should you potty train a boy?

Most pediatricians agree that a child can control his body functions at age two. As a single mother, I cautiously approached the problem at that age. He was trained in two months.

Apparently it is the fashion now days to wait until the child is three. I think that there are some social activists who think that a child should be almost in nursery school before they learn to control themselves. A child can be successfully trained at two with no problems...ask your grandmother when she trained her children. Odds are that she will say before two, although some vary.

You know your child better than anyone else, so it is not a matter especially of age, it is your child's development. But in my opinion, if a child can go get the diaper, take off the old one and lift his legs to be changed...then it's time!!!

What age should potty training start?

This will totally depend on your child and whether they are showing signs of being ready.

Be prepared for many accidents though, as it takes time for them to feel the need to go, and to do so in a potty or toilet.

How do you potty train your toddler?

Potty Training can be a very time consuming affair. So its important you give enough time for training your toddler for potty. Don't force your child to tak the potty, give in a relaxed attitude. Don't get upset because your child is ignorning the potty. Try to coax your child onto the potty rather than forcing to sit. Try to make it easy for the child such as potty training girls with skirts, dresses or shorts on. Boys can wear pants that they can just pull down. Avoid using zipper pants for boys.

When is your child ready for potty training?

For all reasonable intents and purposes, you can begin potty training as young as 18 months or wait until after your child over 3. I’d consider anything in the range of 20 months to 3 years to be a pretty good age to start and depends on your child’s development and other “forcing functions”.

What are the steps on how to potty train a child?

It so depends on your child's readiness and, given the right circumstances, it just happens. There are people who train their babies, books on how to do it in a day and so on. It can easily cause friction and crying of Both mother and child. I ended up showing my child the ropes, so to speak. Got the potty chair, and practiced. Had other boys over who used the bathroom. When he was successful, I bought big boy pants (had Transformers and Superman on them!) I had promised him and let him wear them if he kept them dry. There was a lot of pride involved. The other child took longer since he was physically delayed, but the same process worked.

Do not scold them and follow their lead and it will happen before first grade.

If they are wet at night, be gentle and clean them up and remake the bed--it is really just a passing phase. My child got a shiny penny if the bed happened to be dry.

What age to start potty training?

age two or three is usual. It depends on the child. Some children can distinguish and tell you when they need to go if you train them to tell you. Others cant verbally communicate well to age four.

How do you potty train a two year old?

There are so many opinions given on how to potty train boys, ranging from the process to who should potty train them. Two-year olds generally can indicate when they have to go to the bathroom. For that age everything has to be done for them. Let the boy and trainer -- generally the parent, most often the mother-- agree what the boy will say as a signal he has to urinate or defecate. Depending on anatomy, his penis may have to be gently aimed or held for him while standing at the toilet. There are step stools specifically designed for toileting for small boys to stand up on. While sitting, the penis may have to be aimed downward to avoid missing the toilet (yes, this can happen!!). If it's impossible to take him to a bathroom to pee, take him to some place outside with complete privacy, not in an open area where others can see him. Try not to completely undress him. My son is 3 1/2, he knows how to use the toilet to do #1 and he knows how to do #2 (he did this one time one) but he refuses to wear underwear, I have every style, shape, character and he just will not put them on, he will go around naked and ask for a pull up when he needs to do #2. He will wear a swimming suit and not have an accident, he knows you can't wear a pull up in the swimming pool.

If anyone has any advice.....please send my way.

My son starts Pre-K in 1 month and he can't wear pull ups to school.

reply to julesg68@yahoo.com When he asks for a pull up to do #2, dont give it to him. let him poop where and when ever he wants. buy him underwear that looks like a pull up. You can also try the pull ups cool alert!!! thoes really work!! Let his peers deal with this. When he does #1 or #2 his peers at pre school will deal with this and perhaps say things like 'You're not even a big boy yet!' You could also put his swimming trunks on and it's time 'Mom put her food down!' You are allowing him to carry on with this behavior and most possibly giving in too quickly because there is always such a battle over it. At his age he should be in proper underwear. Let him turn four and try again.

How do you use the Dr Phil potty training method?

How do you potty train a boy?

Get him to at least sit on the potty while going in his diapers. This will get him used to the idea of sitting on a potty and pushing. After a few weeks, if he is still terrified of going without his diaper on, then cut a large hole in the bottom of the diaper without him knowing. Then when he pushes, the results will surprise and please him, and he'll see how easy it is. This worked for us.
