Time for Toilet Training?

The Ant Hill blog asks “How did you get your child to get beyond their dependency on diapers?”

That’s always a tough question for parents, one that deserved its own Discussion Board!

Dr. Greene put together a list of tips for parents looking to ease the transition from diaper to potty. Here’s a sample:

• By fun new underwear for the new adventure.

• When they do something in the potty, leave it there for them to admire.
