My DS (2:11) is having a bit of trouble potty training. He has had quite a few health problems (pneumonia, heart defect, asthma) and although is in good health now is quite sensitive and 'babyish' He did have problems with his speech but is better at being understood now.
His nursery are really REALLY pushing the potty training. They say that at his age he should be fully trained by now and that all his peers have been trained. He will sit on the potty for them but is wetting himself a couple of times a day. He will not sit on the potty at home. He gets really distressed. I have tried everything I can think of (...treats, big boys pants with his favourite characters, sitting on the big loo.....his sister has sat on the potty, I have, heck even DH sat on it!!) He just isn't convinced, says no and is quite happy with nappies....
....anyway all his friends have been moved up to the next room at nursery and he is with smaller children. He is quite tall for his age so it is really noticable. They say that unless he has special needs he cannot go into the next room but I think he should be allowed to go in there to improve his speech, play with his friends, see them use the potty and then (hopefully) it will all fall into place.
AIBU to think that this seems really unfair?
