Ok,.. Thanks For Letting Me Know...

[laundrymom]

Just get a text,.. 603am.

In case dad forgets to tell you. We are really working on potty training with Jamie. * not real name.


My response ... K

Now Jamie has never not once shown the slightest interest in ever going. She just doesn't. She doesn't care.

Soooo. Does this impact my day in the slightest? Nope. Jamie is behind emotionally and never shown one single glimmer of trying to potty. Let alone telling me she needs to go. She also is dressed in onsies every day with buckled pants.

Ugh. This should be super fun--

[Kaddidle Care]

Well at least they didn't send her in underwear and didn't let you know.

Hang in there, you're in for a bumpy ride.

"Cool!! I will start here as soon as she can recognize she needs to go and ask me, herself. Keep working at it and it should not take too long. Good luck!! "

You guys work on it at home for a couple of months and I'll let you know when she is ready here.

Very Funny

My reply would be That's great! I can't wait until the first time she lets me know she needs to use the potty. When she does I'll text you right away.

Every Monday morning I have a DCM that will inform me of there potty training updates from over the weekend of there 16 month old son. They have been working on potty training since he was 14 months. The kid started walking at 13 1/2 months. The first weekend that they "potty trained" DCB came here with a black eye. They had him on a stool so that he could "pee" like dad" and he fell into the toilet. He has an interest in the potty so they give him treats to sit on it. He says poop and they put him on then he runs away and poops on the floor. Now they have it in there living room so he can sit on the potty when ever. They let him run around with out pants or a diaper. He has never once went number 1 or 2 in the potty. He does pee and poop all over the house. I nod and smile. The last Monday she asked how it was going here. I simply told her that he has never once given me one sign that he is ready to potty train. He has never even given me one of "her signs". He does say poop, but typically he just farted or he has a pants full.

Love that response. ::

[laundrymom]

Well she came in in pullups, which i change with every pee. I've changed her 2 times. She wont go in the bathroom when the others do- she has been here 3 hours and has yet to say anything remotely about pottying She is being very whiney though. Ugh. This is just SUPER fun.

For the record my potty policy is in my contract and what I plan on following. Not a here are pullups and panties. She does fine at home. Good luck.

So I will continue to offer but not require her to go. Just like everything else I do.

Imwondering how long it will take for them to train her or them to give up because until she shows ANY interest or readiness its a waste of my time. My time is valuable. They may have 20 min of every 30 to sit with her coaxing but I do not.

[LittleD]

How old is she?

I had a dcm come in last week and tell me they are potty training thier 15mth girl. She said "She really wants to go, she's always playing with the potty and wants to sit when we do!" She's new, this is her 3rd week, so I haven't told her I won't even attempt it here yet, as she hasn't asked me to. I have NannyD's potty training letter on stand by for when she does, LOL!

[wdmmom]

My response is always the same. "Awesome! Keep up the good work at home. As soon as he/she can tell us they have to go potty, we'll do it!"

Parents need to realize that putting their kid on the pot every 30 minutes isn't an option at daycare. There are several other littles that need to properly be cared for so spending 5-10 minutes in the bathroom every half hour isn't feasible.

[laundrymom]

she is 2. and I have kids who potty between 18 mo and 3 1/2. I feel its a stage not an age thing. I dont want stress involved in it. No stress at all. But I dont push,plus I refuse to sit 20 out of 30 min,.. waiting on them to pee. I have 9 other children here. Thats wasiting my time.

Mom hasnt even checked on her....

want to bet that she wears diapers at home????

I know for a fact that they have different rules for meals, tv, bedtimes, behavior, etc,... than they tell me,.. I bet this is no different.

Im just frustrated... and,.. I refuse to do it alone just because Mom wants it done.
