Potty Training?
Answer:
I know what you are going through and I would always take the child by the hand in lead them into the bathroom and set them on it. They might get upset but they need to go and we need to teach them that the bathroom is the place to do it at. REWARD the child if they go then it helps reinforce the potty training and making them want to go in the potty.
Obviously she is getting extra attention by being in the bathroom, when she says she has to potty set a potty timer for when she has to be done, Like a 3 minute limit. unless you know.
The one thing that worked with my daughter was bringing her potty chair in the living room and letting her play without a diaper on. Kids don't like to feel wet. Each time that she goes in her pants take her to the potty chair quickly. She will get it. It took about a week and a lot of laundry but it was worth it. Also, they have new pullups now that feel cool when the child goes in them. That might be something to try when you are out.
My two year old did that too! What I did is I made a sticker chart. if she doesn't potty no sticker. I hung it right above the potty! She loves it and now only goes to the potty if she really needs to because she knows if she doesn't go, its a waste of time! She loves putting her stickers on the chart! Keep it simple... top half of the page for peeing, bottom half for pooping (so thats way its easier for her to put them on herself because she has a larger area to work with!) After so many stickers, give her a reward, like a sucker or ice cream. We do 15 pee stickers and 10 poop stickers! A friend of mine did this too and it worked for her daughter too!! Good Luck!
