Sam is way younger (2) but he is terrified to go poop in the toilet. <BR/><BR/>And men are so proud of their poop when they are older....must be making up for it. Good luck, I may need to follow whatever works for you in a few years.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08292435818869566571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11864721.post-54620590611500701952008-10-16T12:04:00.000-05:002008-10-16T12:04:00.000-05:00As for Grant...Faith had some problems with potty ...As for Grant...Faith had some problems with potty training, and the Dr. told me that she was just being lazy, so to help give her the push she needed, he suggested I take away things from her that really mean a lot, for a day. Or not allow her to do something she wanted to do, untill she can show some big girl self control. I am not going to say it was easy. A lot of crying, but she is much better. It is a work in progress. Another thing, make him clean up the mess. And not just a little either. Make him really work at it. I even made Faith clean the potty for awhile. At first they think it is fun, but after a few times of cleaning up after themselves, the fun goes away and it becomes something they do not want to do. <BR/><BR/>As for Sam, just an idea, punishment for Grant, could be to help you clean up after Sam. Try to allow him to see what it is like to clean after someone else!! I would agree with the others too, you might want to check with the doctor.Simmons girlzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691558708482329152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11864721.post-31554197706803654562008-10-16T10:47:00.000-05:002008-10-16T10:47:00.000-05:00Is this what I have to look forward to in potty tr...Is this what I have to look forward to in potty training a boy!!

You might even talk to his pediatrician about it, I'm sure he isn't the only child to ever do this and they may have some good advice for you.KChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18396429002961412543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11864721.post-69498697694900747612008-10-15T07:36:00.000-05:002008-10-15T07:36:00.000-05:00oh Jen - I feel so bad for ya!

They do make pads/diapers that they can wear around the house if that's something you want to consider.<BR/><BR/>As for Grant . . . . I have no idea here. Haven't gotten to test out my mom skills yet :( Whatever you choose, just stay consistent.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04903029958201806185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11864721.post-64840626834780082722008-10-14T23:25:00.000-05:002008-10-14T23:25:00.000-05:00my husband's cousin told me she was so embarassed ...my husband's cousin told me she was so embarassed to wear a pull up to bed when she got bigger. and she purposed it in herself to not pee in the bed anymore, and didn't. maybe pull ups would work. at any rate, hope something works!!amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13189348512265390836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11864721.post-78340601841514108702008-10-14T21:47:00.000-05:002008-10-14T21:47:00.000-05:00Sam peeing is not uncommon of older dogs.

If you call the vet they might have a solution to that.<BR/><BR/>I don't know that I have any good suggestions about Grant. I had easy potty trainers, but Ben did most of it. He might have better advice than me.Amoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180764196840856181noreply@blogger.com
