It worked
It was rough and I felt guilty, but it worked. The hard part was saying “no. Your pants are wet. That’s icky. (Child’s name) has wet pants. That’s not good. That’s icky.” I just felt that it made her sad and I hated to see her cry, but it lasted the 3 days and now she’s mostly potty trained. I emphased (as the book suggests) using over praising for her good behavior, and the doll as a training tool was an awesome idea! I tried to potty train 3 other methods that didn’t work. So I’d rate this high for effectiveness.

This method works, potty trained 2 kids using it ...
This method works, potty trained 2 kids using it and both times success (it took 2 days with my second one but hey! ) no accidents at all after 2-3 days and both never wet the bed either ( so nappy free for bedtime too ) be ready to be stuck at home only potty training for a day or 2 ! No visitors, phone calls or checking your emails haha ok maybe not that extreme. Book is very dated so is the language but if you look past that it delivers what it promises which is rare.

Since May 31st, he is using the bathroom now on his own.
Since May 31st, he is using the bathroom now on his own. I still have him in diapers for naps and bedtime, but I plan to stop that next week. He is very proud of himself. I am giving him treats and lots of praise when he goes. He even went outside our home for the first time today. This is what he did learn from the book: *how to take off his pants and pull them up. Unlike most toddlers, my son has no interest in having his clothes off and had not initiated dressing and undressing. *how to listen to me and follow-through on a request I make. He is really so much better at this than before we used this book. * how to dump his own potty chair and clean up messes he makes.

this was the way my mom trained me and it worked
Since this was the way my mom trained me and it worked, I decided to use it to train my stepdaughter who is 27 months. I know she had been training at home with Mom but Mom just kept putting her back in a diaper and indicated that sometimes she wanted to go and sometimes she didn't. Showing all signs of readiness, I knew she was capable of pottying indpendently she just needed the right instruction. So with all distractions eleminated, we started. The day started off pretty rough and it was VERY apparent that this child did not want to be indpenedent much less a big girl. Many people indicated this method wasn't for sensitive children. My stepdaughter can be characterized as sensitive but she also wants her way all the time and thus cries when she doesn't get her way.
