Need a bit of help ladies. My dd has been unreliably using the potty for some time now, it is a bit hit and miss. But now she is refusing to sit on it at all. She is four now and is too big for it really. I have tried her on the toilet but she is scared because she has nothing to hold on to. She has taken to weeing on my pine carver dining chair, obviously because it makes her feel more secure! I approached my HV about getting some kind of komode but she said this wasnt wise because dd would have to use a normal toilet when we go out etc. She said OT can provide special seating with arms to put round the toilet. But she is not referring me here because we should be moved in 3 weeks, which is understandable, and there is no OT service to talk of here either. I was just wondering whether I could just buy something like this, whether any of you had got anything similar and if it does make a difference to a child with mobility problems. I am prepared to pay for it because dd starts mainstream school in september and I would like her to be dry. She is really keen to have no pants on now, but just likes weeing on my carver chair 'toilet' Any help would be appreciated
