@ Sissy, Tgirl and others:

1. How do you potty train a child?

2. What can you do if your baby starts brawling and catching an attitude in public.

(Age: Less than 5 yrs old)

1. How do you potty train a child?


first every child is unique so this might or might not work. patience and guidance is the keyword, so here is what i do

1) take him/her with you inside the toliet and demonstrate with them. for example during the time for my little niece, i did the demonstrating. i kinda squatted on it and she was watching me and repeated it after me cox they sometimes learn by imitating, just to make her feel ease with it. maybe do the gender thing. boys with the father and moms with the daughter.
2) recognize the signs that they need to go or help them recognize the signs of knowing when they are wet etc and encourage to talk any sensation of wanting to go they might have. my niece her face changes when she wants to go or she just stand still, all i do then is to help her sit.
3) i'd suggest keeping some toys around there, just to keep them busy while they do their thing. or maybe some cheerios as a reward each time they do it right and praise them too. like Good job! David, or high 5 just to get them going
4) let them practice by themselves how to pull up and down their pants, and maybe have them flush the toilet for you, as to get them familiar with the whole process and maybe bring their potty chair in the toilet which the child may sit, only if the want to, they may if they see you doing it.
5)just make them to sit on the potty chair if even nothing happens it just gets them familiar and comfortable with it.

i'd suggest maybe try to settle the whatever the matter is mutually and if it doesn't solve the issue i wouldn't mind dragging them in a corner and spanking them.

grin grin grin And let them call the cops on me?

I've tried this, and I've been advice not to.
Fact is, some kids thinks you won't beat them just because you'r ein public, which they are right, so they take advantage and use the opportunity to get what they want.

I took my cousin to walgreens to "sth". we got to the cashier, and you know that's where they love tho keep their candy.
He pointed to a candy right, so I bought it for him. He pointed to another, I told him no.
So he started crying and kicking. I was about to give him a "small" sroke on his buttocks, but the lady was like "awww, don't do that. He's just a kid". I told her if I walk out of the store without paying for the candy, she better not call the cops on me.
There is no way, a two year old can know why he's being spanked.
But then, how else do you hush them and not spoil them in public?


Hope say you're not tired of hearing me talk about my cutie pie. cheesy But he's the best example for this topic. Not that he's a bad kid, but he gets out of hands sometimes grin grin

I knew you would wink

Octo mom? She's mentally ill. How can you have babies and not have any ways/means to take care of them. Yet, still wants to have more? undecided.

It's not that they don't want to wait, it's lack of prevention. Lack of proper judgment, just having unprotected sex up and down.
