Potty training

So, my little boy is 3, will be 4 in may. Potty training is just a complete and utter nightmare, we have tried everything you can’t think of and he’s just still not getting it. Does anyone have any advice or is going through similar so I don’t feel like a complete failure of a mum I’d be so grateful. Thank you ☺️

But since these three times she has been refusing to use it. When she tells me that she has to do a poo and I want to bring her to t...

Potty Training / Discipline

I’m at my wits end I’m not sure what to do anymore. My 4 y/o daughter, who has autism (between level 1 and 2 if that matters) isn’t potty training and even worse doesn’t understand discipline.
