[QUOTE="Pink Elephant, post: 730293, member: 21572"] I realize this is an older topic, however, thanks to stumbling upon it as a result of the forum showing it as a similar topic to the [B]toilet lid[/B] thread I just started, it struck a note with me, so I'm replying. I had two (REALLY) late trainers, however, not one of my kids enjoyed wet or dirty pants, thanks to cloth diapers and rubber pants. Those diapers would sag and droop something awful, and the rubber pants (I'm certain) were hot, so between both diapers and pants, my kids were always cooperative when it came to getting changed. I remember how I used to threaten my kids with such things as... wake up wet in the morning, I'm going to pin your wet diapers up on the clothesline for all the neighbours to see. Another I used... wet or dirty your diapers, I'm going to pin you up on the clothesline by your big fat diapers, so all the neighbours can see what a big baby you are. Who knows what effect it had on them, but one thing is for certain, in the morning when I'd go in to get them up from their cribs, they were always standing up inside, anxiously awaiting my arrival to change their pants. They could wait to get out of those uncomfortable, ammonia odour cloth diapers. When I was able to finally get them out of daytime diapers, on went the thick padded training pants (soakers) with rubber pants over top. I practiced the strike 3 method. Strike one... pants were changed and little was said. Strike two... pants were changed, only with a stern approach and a reminder that diapers would be put back on. Stroke three... soakers were stripped off of said kids bum, and replaced with a bulky double diaper and pair of rubber pants. My take on the matter was simple, you want to act like a baby, I'll treat you like one. Eventually it clicks, but I know all too well how frustrating it can be when one is greeted with a slow start, or a child who's adamant on remaining in diapers. [/QUOTE]
