Aw, good luck! It might be a great idea to try to start very young if there's zero pressure. I knew a little boy who was started very very late, and he had all kinds of really bad habits by then. It was also more stubborn than I've ever see anyone be, ever
Man.
Yeah, I've heard other people say they trained their kids early, before they were old enough to talk back.
And fortunately, as much as I'm griping here, I'm actually really good at keeping it cool. I have experience with elderly care, cleaning up after "accidents," and honestly a little baby poo and pee on wood floors is a heck of a lot better. I'm doing just positive reinforcement, so he doesn't get any negative response from me when he goes in the wrong place - I just ignore it and clean it up. The funny thing is, he's gotten really into the cleaning too, so he's started trying to clean up after his accidents and everything else.
Yeah, no kids of my own and kinda pleasd with that
Haha, you should be. It's... well, definitely not for everyone.
It really is amazing, though, how one little smile or hug (HUGS!!!) can make up for EVERYTHING. How can someone so small have so much power???
