How to Potty Train a Girl

Mistake of the day: Telling The Zombie Elf (my four-year-old boy) he'll get candy every time the baby uses the potty.
    This has evolved into slave labor! I turn around and he's herding her to the toilet.Yes, she'll potty train fast, but she might need counseling afterward.

*headdesk*
Note to self: Never do THAT again.

    Don't eat any chocolate the Zombie Elf offers you.

    We had The Girl help The Boy with this same thing. Decent results.

    I think it's a good idea to involve the Zombie Elf in Dr. Jones', uh, business. This could, uh, come out very well.

    Love,

    Thanks for making my day, I think the mental image of this poor child being marched to the potty by her older brother will stay with me for a long time.

    Hah! Kids of all sizes and ages understand the universal language: bribery.

    If she got a piece of candy every time, too, they'd probably never come out of the bathroom!

    I may steal the picture you used today!

    Dear Elisa, this made me grin. I can just see the Zombie Elf shepherding--like a sheep dog--the baby into the bathroom. Herding as it were! Peace.
