Student Comments on Toilet Learning:
All
went well with my training course; Toilet Learning. It was very
informative and I love the concept of toilet learning as opposed to
"toilet training". I shared some of the information with a parent
concerning saving the cost of pull ups over regular disposable diapers.
Her son really does not have the desire to use the potty nor does he
have the ability to control his bladder or bowel movements. He is big
for his age and she still prefers his wearing pull ups. So I am ok with
her choice, but I have changed my focus on his toilet learning while in
my care. Thanks for a great course - Owings Mill, Maryland
I love all the Care Courses I have taken. I am in the process of taking three of your courses and find them extremely helpful. Also I have shared some of the suggestions regarding potty training with one of my families. Their little one although 3 years old has had no interest in potty training and they were a bit worried when they were seeing no results at all. I wanted to be a support to them but felt he was not ready for toilet training yet and did not want the little one to get frustrated. After reading some of the information I suggested, they realized that he is just not ready for toilet training at this time. They have decided to be patient and wait a couple of months before trying again. WHEW!! Thank you for some great info. - Westminster, Colorado
