1. TIMING
Timing is critical when determining if your child is ready to be potty trained. In most cases children are showing an interest in becoming potty trained between the ages of 18 months to 24 months old. During this process the parent should try to avoid using toilets that have the auto flush, which often times scare many children. In the event you find yourself having to use this particular type of toilet, consider covering the sensor so that the parent can control the flush. Having a toilet stall with adequate space, along with an appropriate size potty chair that allows the parent to kneel and console their child during this tedious process is also helpful.
2. PATIENCE & UNDERSTANDING
Displaying good behavior throughout the potty training process is important in achieving success. Whether it is the mother to the daughter or the father to the son, tolerance cannot be stressed enough. Ensure that when communicating with the child, that the instructions are slow, clear and concise to their level of understanding. It is also important not to forget the age difference dur...
All parents wish to have a child that is potty trained quickly and easily, Childbirth Educator Lora Schwacke tells her clients. However, more often than not, the process turns into a long, drawn out, and stressful experience for both parent and child. She informs her potty training parents that the one major facet of potty training that is usually missed is the consistency. A child must have consistency if they are expected to learn anything new, and that includes potty training. Unless the parent takes the time to ensure that the routine of using the potty is put in place, the child will not have as much success. Think of it like a game of baseball, it is hard for a team to score if the referee is constantly changing the rules of the game.
In different countries and cities, infant caretaking styles can differ widely due to varying cultures and values. For example, the study done by Morelli, Rogoff, Oppenheim and Goldsmith in 1992 revealed differences in the infant sleeping practices between Mayan parents and U.S. parents from Utah. While more Mayan parents preferred to let their infants sleep on their bed to develop a close mother-infant bond, more U.S. parents preferred to keep their infants on a separate bed and to let them sleep alone as soon as possible in order to allow their child to become independent (Morelli et al., 1992). The purpose of this study is to examine the caretaking practices of a current parent through an interview and to compare and contrast the parent’s
A newborn baby's watery poop can surprise new parents, especially when the baby is breastfed.

One mother relates that she took both of her daughters' pacifiers away at the age of three months. They says that they did not seem to need sucking on it anymore to soothe themselves and that they were too young to remember having it. This mother also observed that it is much easier to take away something from infants than from toddlers. She therefore advises taking the binky away as soon as possible and avoid greater problems later on.
Parenting is not easy. Especially when society offers so many different types of approaches to childbearing. Some specific ways include an authoritative style, a neglectful style, a permissive style, and a strict style, however, the list goes on and on. As a parent, it is often hard to tell which method is the most effective and beneficial to a child. Nowadays, and more than ever, people are finding that some parents may be getting too involved. Too much parent involvement may seem harmless but, in reality, has many negative impacts on a child’s life.
