The Key to Potty Training Success

(ARA) - When one day you look back on the biggest challenge you faced
as the parent of a young child, what do you think it will be? Getting
your kids to sleep through the night, teaching them how to eat
properly or potty training?

"Potty training wins hands down," says "Potty Pro" Teri Crane of Avon
Lake, Ohio,

I happen to live near this woman ... man, talk about a basket case. Talking
to her was like talking to someone who was manic. She seemed to have no
idea what she was doing.
VERY weird.




and she should know. She started trying to train her son,
Spencer, when he was two-and-a-half and met such stiff resistance she
gave up and put him back in diapers.

"Nothing was working. In fact, he actually had become hostile towards
the potty seat. We would ask if he had to go. He would shout, 'No I
don't have to. I don't want to,'" she says.

Spencer's breakthrough finally came just before his third birthday. "I
wanted to enroll him in preschool, but couldn't find a program that
would accept him until he was potty trained. So I decided it was time
to try again," says Crane.

Knowing that Spencer loves parties, she decided to throw one that
would convince him using the potty is fun. Crane planned a Potty Party
for Spencer in which he received the gift of a doll he would help
train. "All morning, in between reading books and playing games, I
taught Dolly how a big boy goes to the potty by himself and Spencer
watched closely," says Crane. "By lunchtime, he had grasped the most
important aspects of potty training and was teaching Dolly himself."

After lunch, for added incentive, she told Spencer that if he showed
her that he could use the potty just like Dolly had he'd get to go to
his favorite place, Chuck E. Cheese. "It worked like a charm," says
Crane.

Crane's Potty Party technique was so successful, she decided to write
a book on the subject. "Potty Train Your Child in Just One Day" is now
in its 6th printing.

The book outlines how to throw a successful, themed Potty Party and
teaches parents the keys to potty training success, including how to:

* Recognize the signs that the child is ready to be potty trained.

If one of these three things could be consideredthe biggest challenge of a
parent of a young child, then something is out of whack. I would say laying
the foundation of character, self-esteem and good judgment. But that would
be me, I guess.

Considering that the OP is a spammer, good judgment and character are
not two things that are not high on the list.

I should have been clearer. I should have said: Considering that the OP
is a spammer, good judgment and character are not two things that are
not high on the OP's list.
