Parents need to have pretty thick skin–EVERYONE has an opinion about how you are raising your children.
I was reminded of this early today when we brought the potty chair out of storage for Olivia. She has been telling us when she needs to have her diaper changed, and she’s even been giving us a bit of warning in some cases. We thought she might be interested in this option, but our efforts haven’t been supported by all.
“You’re potty training Olivia?” The voice dripped with incredulous skepticism. “She’s not even two yet.”
The critic here?
My four year old.

Ha! Good luck with that… both the potty training and the precocious, lovely critic.

Those are some good signs, I wish Colin was to that stage but he still denies he’s messy/wet even when he reeks! Good luck with the potty training efforts!
