We, or more accurately I (since I'm the one home the most with them), don't push potty training. As a teacher I learned that pushing a child in this area likely leads to big issues so it's not worth pushing. Joshua potty trained himself to go #2 before he was even 2 years old, amazing. Matthew didn't follow suit on the time frame, but he has now successfully completed half his potty training before 2 1/2! Again, there were only mere suggestions from us to try to spark in interest in him and then he realized it was a better idea to poo in the toilet than in his pants and he never looked back. After a few weeks of this consistent behavior he ironically earned "Stinky" the garbage truck! Now we'll just wait and see how long it takes for our house to become diaper free (at least during the day).
