[QUOTE="Malika, post: 526649, member: 11227"] I wonder if it's the (understandable) pressure to be toilet trained that is making him dig his heels in, as it were, and refuse to co-operate? There is a theory - and I feel it is true - that left to themselves, without training, human beings will naturally be "clean" in the way they defecate, going into a private place and then covering it up. I did try to get J to use the potty from when he was nearing two without much success and then one day, when he was two and a half, he just decided by himself to start using the loo and that was it, he was toilet trained from then on (it is just the night bed wetting I now have a problem with :sigh:). This is also how he started dressing himself - just went one morning into his room and came out fully and correctly dressed! So I do tend a little to the idea that things will happen when the child is developmentally ready for it. If being naked is problematic then perhaps this idea of covering him with a tee-shirt that is bare underneath is really the best idea? [/QUOTE]
