Potty-Training Tales

Posted by admin on

  As soon as my bright, precocious, and happy one-year-old daughter had her first birthday party, I plopped her on the most deluxe potty chair I could find.

For the next few years, she clearly articulated precisely how she felt about my unrelenting efforts to get her toilet training completed.
