Why is potty training so frustrating? I thought we were doing good until Austin went to school today. It seems that he wouldn't pee in the potty all day and was content to just pee in his pants. From what his teacher explained, he started out by peeing in his pants and not wanting to get his clothes changed. Then he changed his mind and every time he peed in his pants he started to take his clothes off to get them changed. Was he peeing in his pants because he was afraid of the potty at school (he was freaked out by the little potty when I dropped him off) or was it because his teachers were not taking him to the potty enough, or even at all? Is it considered babying your child if you take him to the potty every 30 minutes just to try? Or are you supposed to let them go an hour and then pee on themselves? What does that accomplish? How is it that Austin can wear underwear from the time he gets up until the time he goes to bed at home and have only two accidents, but at school he comes home with six bags of wet clothes? And they were wet! Am I overreacting because I think this should be easy? Where's the easy button for potty training?
Did I mention that I didn't even have to do the hard part! Grandma Richards took care of the hard part when she was here and got the whole potty training thing jump started. We all know that I may have been avoiding it...now we know why! I'm getting frustrated with the easy part!
