However, he hasn’t long been talking properly and had a speech delay. Whereas now he has caught up on his speech and has come on leaps and bounds. So last week ...

I feel so embarrassed by this… but my daughter is 4 and she’s barely potty training. Is it possible for kids to feel completely done with pull ups, and WANT to wear underwear but they’re refusing to go to the toilet???? I am crying over here.

Potty training stage struggle

Hey everyone! My 4 year old son has reached the potty training, which is going well for the most part, but... he refuses to watch my husband and learn how to stand and go, he only ever wants to watch me so he only ever sees people sit. Any tips or advice to move him to standing like guys do instead of sitting?
