Toilet training.

Potty training, although, it is a normal milestone, can be a fraught time for parents and toddlers alike. It may be easy for some children, but it is not uncommon for a toddler to have putty training problems. Some of these problems are easy to solve while others are may take a little more ingenuity and time.

By choosing the right time and approaching toilet training in a calm and patient manner, you can help your child get to grips with this new skill as quickly and smoothly as possible.

By the age of three nine out of ten children are dry most days. By the age of four most children are reliably dry. The average age that the child will be putty trained is around two and a half years. The girls are generally potty trained more easily than boys.

Please, try not to worry and compete with others. Start toilet training at the right time for your child. It is usually best not to start toilet training your toddler during a stressful time, such as:

• changes in the family: the arrival of the new baby, separation, or divorce
• starting a new childcare arrangement
• moving
• when one of the family members is ill
• when a toddler has an acute condition

Toilet training is an educational process rather than being disciplinary. The child is only a person, who can control the muscles and the impulses of elimination. The parent’s only role should be in helping the child to exercise this control. If your child is struggling with the process, homeopathic remedies can smooth the process for the child and the parent.
