No point in trying until then, with the stubborn streaks and all. And then they both trained pretty quickly. <br /><br />For Abby, I pretty much relied on her preschool to lead the way. They were awesome. Her teacher did a social story - I can send you the text if you like, it worked really well. They used that, and scheduled trips, starting with every 20 minutes. <br /><br />The only other thought I have for you is - what if he missed out on a fun outing? "Only boys who use the potty get to go to the waterpark" kind of thing. Of course that means you'd have to find a sitter, or stay home with him, but...I don't know, it was just a thought. rewards/consequences beyond M&Ms.Catehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16248485766805270628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2428837015272859930.post-60037782410451762542012-06-22T14:26:41.747-04:002012-06-22T14:26:41.747-04:00Well, my child is not a special needs kiddo, but w...Well, my child is not a special needs kiddo, but with potty training...we just pee'd outside a lot. Hey! Let's pee on that tree! Let's pee on mommy's tires. It made it all very exciting. I figured if we could get him peeing somewhere besides his pants, then we'd work our way to the toilet. Good luck mama!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103113770587935123noreply@blogger.com
