It was a battle of wills at our house the other morning. Easton woke up with a dry diaper. Therefore, I knew he would have to pee soon. I insisted he pee on the potty and he insisted I give him a diaper to pee in. Um, no. He fought it the entire time screaming and trying to jump off the potty while I held him on there. It was ugly. He finally made it happen but not without a huge struggle and a pee extravaganza all over the bathroom floor. Technically some did go in the potty so I counted it as a success and did the whole dance around and give him a sucker thing.
Had this incident been filmed, I am sure I would be featured on Super Nanny as the “What not to do when potty training” example. I think it may have set us back a few years.
