Had a first time mom once give me detailed instructions about how to potty train her 18 month old daughter;
1. Take her the bathroom every 30 minutes (if she is busy, gently rub her back and soothingly ask her if she would like to accompany you to the bathroom, if she is playing wait til she is ready to be done.)
2. When she gets into the bathroom, close the door because she deserves her privacy and doesn't need other kids seeing her privates.
3. While she is getting her pants down, please try not to look so she does not feel someone is looking at her privates.
4. When she is sitting on the toilet, you need to read a minimum of 3 books (see the list of approved books)
5. Have her sit for at least 15-20 minutes
She told me I could NOT leave her in the bathroom because she required constant supervision, I had to try not to look and I had to keep the door closed at all times????.....I'm thinking what about the other 6-8 kids I have? What are they suppose to be doing while I am in the restroom with her daughter? She even provided a pre-approved list of what she felt was appropriate reading material for using the toilet. Needless to say our relationship did not last long.
I saw her a few years later at our local county fair. We were in the restroom and she was in the stall next to me (she didn't see me though) and when her daughter who was now about 5 yrs old refused to use the toilet the mom said, "OMG, ***** you are such a little b***h!" I was floored! I purposely waited for her to come out of the stall and said as sweet as I could to little girl; "Well, hi *****, I can't believe how big you are!" and to mom, I said, "I thought I recognized your voice! Nice to see you!"
and walked off......

We've been down this road before
but I prefer gummy bears! YUM!!
I would, however, pee a million times for 1 bag of Reese's Pieces! Come to think of it, I'd do alot of things for peanut butter! Did you see that Snicker's now makes a candy bar with peanut butter in it! http://www.food-news.net/snickers-in...utter-squared/
