Parents: How old to start potty training?

Big Buck

Elite Mentor
Platinum
My son is 14 1/2 months old right now, and we're about to buy him a potty seat to get his used to it. Any helpful hints?
 
Act as if it fun...and constantly ask him if he has to go......and at the expense of sounding weird....let him watch and see how to go.......

Just a tidbit though...buys usually are harder to train then girls...
 
Make a BIG deal when they use it. I mean party hats and the whole 9 yards.

No pressure if they don't get it at first. Relax. It will happen.

First thing in the morning, sit him on it for a few Min. Things may happen by accident. Then it's Party time !!! (see above)

Tell him "This is your special Seat and no one else's" Make it seem like a big deal that he has one and on one else does.
 
14 1/2 months is on the early side of training so again don't be stressed if it takes a while. I have heard of people that try early, Fail, relax for a while and then try again several months later with success..

Oh , Also be prepared for a few BAD AIM misses with boys.....
Keep a roll of paper towels in the Bathroom and say "It's OK, just try and aim better next time...

When he Starts to use the Big toilet float a piece of Toilet paper in the Bowl before he goes and tell him to Aim and hit the paper only.

Sounds weird, but helps them concentrate instead of just spraying all over the curtains and such...
 
Boys,from what I understand, are much harder to train than girls.

Bri had HERSELF trained at 13 months. She wanted to swim at the pool we belong too. I told her that in order for her to swim she had to be potty trained. It worked...the lil shit used the potty from that point on. Perhaps it was luck, or perhpas it was her own desire to swim bad enough to potty train..Who knows?!

BE patient, allow him to take his time, don't freak out if he's NOT ready!
 
Buck seriously, don't even potty train him. My parents never potty trained me I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU and I came out very emotionally balanced.
 
Speaking of Potty training, During an interview I remember a new Dad say about his Daughter.

"We discussed not ever potty training her.
That way the boys will be sure to bring her home early from dates to change the diaper"

bwahahaha
 
Yea, this would be the Cheap way for parents to deal with dating..

It cost us a bit more, but to keep the boys hands off her "until she want them on her", we spent $ and she got a Black Belt In TKD.
 
For a boy.
When he needs to pee, take him to the bathroom, put 5-6 cheerios in the toilet and make a game out of it.

I potty-trained my nephew (at 16 mos) in 3 weeks.

My little girl just decided one day she wanted to use the toilet. She was 14 mos like your boy. She was instantly trained.
She even got up to pee at night.
 
As soon as he wakes up, take him out of his cage, and straight outside.

And when he does go, make sure to show plenty of affection.
 
This has to be the funniest thread I've seen on this board. I don't mean haha kind of funny, just strange. I don't ever recall seeing a serious potty training thread before.
 
!4 mos in not too young... just relax and it will happen. Bribery works too. With my oldest it was neopolitan crackers, the second it was tootsie rolls, the third it was gummy savers and the baby would eek out every little drop of pee for swedish fish. But they only got it if they used the potty. Then as they got more sophisticated it was only for the poopies. hehehehehheee

Each one of them had AT LEAST ONE public accident. Just mop it up and go home - no big thang.

All for of mine were trained between 18 to 21 months.
 
sounds like you are on the right track. It really bothers me when people won't work with their kids. My brother had a boy and they just fucking potty trained him at 3 years!!! They still give the kid a fucking bottle before bed!! I want to say something but questioning a parent is suicide. This their third kid and it is like they are too lazy now to work with him. The fucking kid is 3 and cannot even talk in sentences yet!
 
Always make sure to rub his nose in any accidents and beat him with a rolled up newspaper, all while sternly yelling "No!! Bad Boy!!"; the sooner the better.

Worked for Lumbuss.
