My DS was 3 in December and still isn't potty trained. I've read about waiting for the right signs, most include a willingness on their part, that's easy to say but when your child is the only one still in nappies at pre-school you start to wonder where you went wrong! I've tried all the usual things, books, charts, rewards but none make any difference. DS won't even sit on the potty without bribery and then will only occasionally do a wee on there if left long enough. I decided to put him in pants today just to see whether anything had changed since we last tried 6 months ago but it hadn't. 6 pairs of pants, trousers and socks later we still had nothing in the potty. I'm just wondering whether he's genuinely not ready or I should persevere further?
He seems to understand that wee and poo should go in the potty but either doesn't realise at the time or is just refusing to do it.
