Whats the best way to train a two year old boy??

I am at home primarily through out the day time so dad isnt very much help...(he is but isnt)

Answer:
We tried at 2 also with no sucess... One day (at 3 and 1 month). He put on his underwear and that was it!

I was told boys have to be ready themselves..
two is a little young! many people have told me with boys potty training dos not usually work until the age 3! maybe you should give him a little more time, unless he is showing interest in it! then you can try, but don't puss it to much!! :)
no matter what you are traini ng him him always reward him when he does good and no reward when he does bad it'll teach him to do what hes supposed to if he wants that treat. thats what i did with rachael when i babysat for her and it worked really well
potty? if so you can put fruit loops in the toilet then fill a dish liquid bottle full of water, put it between your knees and show him how to sink the boats it sounds crazy but it works!
Are you talking about behaving or potty train?

You need to give him the guidlines and remind him of them, do not change the roles on him and make certain you are consistant. That way he isn't getting mixed messages about what he can and cannot do.

GOod luck
I have a girl and a boy. The girl, we tried little paper things with a picture on it. You dropped it in the potty(kiddie pottie) and when they peed the picture would disappear and there was a chart they could stick a star on to show they went pottie. My boy liked the candy reward (not such a good idea but only lasted a couple of months) before he would go regular on the toilet by age 3. Girls usually sooner. The key is to get them into their special underwear (like spongebob or something) so they can be proud of not wearing diapers. good luck
Before you start training him is he showing signs that he is ready? Such as having a dry diaper after waking up from a nap? Or staying dry longer? Those are signs suggesting that his body is ready for the training.
With my older son I was able to put underwear on him. He hated the idea of being wet. NO absorbency with underwear. He started using the potty. Please note when I put pull ups on him he went in the pull ups.
With my little guy. I have to let him go around in his birthday suit. The wet underwear doesn't bother him too much but the pee running down his leg does. He runs to get a diaper and gives it so I can put it on him. That's when we go to the potty.
I try to make it where we do a potty dance, have him flush the toilet after.
Don't be so hard on him. He may not understand things clearly yet. When trying to discipline your child, be more subtle and mild. Play games with him. Use Tickle Me Elmo TMX. He'll love this doll and will do anything you ask him to. So, check out this site http://www.upkb.com/elmotmx.php... for more product tips and details.
