My son was 3 in September. I've tried potty training him 3 times now and he simply doesn't seem ready. It's like he doesn't get much warning when he needs to go for a wee, he just looks down and before you know it he's wet himself. He still doesn't have the communication skills to say 'Mum I need a wee' - My mother and MIL are disgusted with the fact that he's not PT as in their day it was by 2 years old! They've said I'm too soft and that I should make him sit on the potty! I would never force him to sit on it as I don't feel that's fair and just forcing the issue. I've tried so many ways, rewards etc and tried for at least 5 days each time. He also hasn't the ability to pull his trousers down too. Is anyone else in my position? I'm not going to rush him if he's not ready but I do feel some pressure as all my friends and family's children are younger and PT. Any advice please?
