Potting training gone awry

What to do when a child decides she's not interested in using the toilet? Did I mention she's been able to use the potty for over a year? When she wants to, of course.

Control. What's more heady to a preschooler? What can your three-your-old (or four-year-old) say no to today? It's a learning process. For both of us. Let's just hope the thrill of being a big kid soon outweighs the need to be the boss.

  1. Several of my friends have had the same experience. (They were all little girls; I don't know if that's coincidence.)

    A psychologist I know says this can sometimes be a little window into what they might be like as teenagers ... and it can also be a sign they're extremely bright!
