Holding Out

23 February 2010 | Uncategorized | Tags:

We’ve hit a regressive streak with Kaelem and his toilet training. Grrr. Not sure how it’s happened. Maybe that he can change clothes all by himself now, particularly Buzz Lightyear underwear? He’d been doing so well. I asked him today after the third or fourth “accident” what it was going to take to get him to use the potty and not his pants. He thought about it and then looked at me with a grin, “Presents! I like green and purple and orange and yellow presents. I like presents with bows on top.” Ok, fancy wrapping. Check. I asked him what he would like inside his present. “A dog.” Great. Swap out messy toddler pants for messy doggie doo. No boy, you may not have a dog. Just gonna rip that bandaid off right away.

    How do you think he’d respond to taking something away instead of giving him something? (i.e. take away a different toy every time he has an “accident”. Then if he goes a whole day without an accident you can give him one of the toys back).
