Ds3 started potty training on Sunday. Started off well but after a couple of days, gettting him to sit on the potty became a battle - he just refused. He also refused the toilet. We decided not to make a big deal out of it to avoid him getting stressed so just thought we would let him wee his trousers and he would soon get the idea.
Except he didn’t. He just holds it in then gets himself into a state dancing around, crying and holding his willy.
We had to resort to chocolate this morning as a bribe and it worked but I really don’t want to do this every time.
I can’t find any information about what to do in this situation - just keep offering the potty they say.
But if he won’t sit on the bloody thing and can’t do anything because he’s so upset he needs to go what do we do?
Can anyone help please?
