How To Potty Train Your Child in 10 Easy Years

Hand in Hand Parenting: The Podcast

Since we have all personally gone through potty training and we will all have to go through it with our kids, you'd think we'd have nailed down one, surefire potty training method.

But the 11,000 google results you get when you type in 'How to potty train my child,' clearly shows that a one-size-fits-all approach is about as likely as you getting a 5-minute shower with no disruptions.

Yerright.

Sadly, there is no magic potty training method. And sometimes it feels like you'll still be sitting with your child and wiping their butt when they go off to college! But, don't fear...

So Many Methods, So Many Questions

• Potty-train in 3 days or wait till they lead?
• Will pee but won't poop...
• Is fine at home but won't pee at pre-school...
• Pull-ups or bare bums?

The questions are endless.

Which is why we get wholly confused, flabbergasted, frustrated, impatient and exhausted when it comes to potty training.

Does this rite of passage have to be so arrrgh?

This week, a few ideas to help.
