OMG Not potty trained....
Sorry this is just a vent...
How come all everyone has to stick their 2 cents in, when its not called for.
I'm in the breakroom at work, and we are talking about potty training etc. Now Mr. Touchy will be 3 in November. We have started potty training sorta, we've been working on it for about 6 months, he's about 1 year delayed, speech, emotionally, behaviorally and developmentally. We have him go to the potty every time we change his diaper, he will go on cue but does not tell you he has to go. We have never done just straight underwear and pull ups confuse him. The straight underwear would be fine if he didn't like to be wet, which he doesn't care, he's actually a dumper. Dumps water, cups, foods anything on himself. Anyway, the girl in my office says, "OMG he's not trained yet, my kids were trained at 2 and they had mastered it almost immediately", I said "Well, he's delayed", she said "that has nothing to do with it". Are you freakin kidding me... I just walked away, before I flipped out.
Why does everything think they are the professional parent???? I'm no expert but jeez.
Anyhoo, thanks for reading. Any stories of unwanted advise??
