Ready, Set, Potty!: Toilet Training for Children with Autism and Other Developmental Disorders | Brenda Batts
2 posts
Potty training a child with developmental disorders can be a real challenge, and sometimes the extra difficulties make you feel as though you've tried everything, and failed. In this book, Brenda Batts shows how you can overcome problems, big and small, and provides tried and tested methods that really work, tailored to each individual child. Bursting with ideas on how to see past conventional strategies and adapt toilet training to suit your child, this book outlines methods that have helped even the most despairing of parents and caregivers. Examples of success stories range from two-year-olds to adults aged 20, and show that no matter how difficult it may seem, a little creativity and adaptation can get anyone toilet trained, however many previous attempts have failed. The program itself is supported by plenty of helpful hints and tips, as Brenda covers all you need to get your child past the diaper stage and help them to achieve a big step towards independence. This book is a must for anybody looking to toilet train someone with developmental disorders.

We're potty training this weekend. Which means lots of sitting around drinking juice, watching movies, and running into the bathroom. Fun. I have my bookstack to help pass the time.

I saw this sign in a bathroom stall I made use of today.... am I wrong in thinking it unnecessary?? 😂😂😂

I might clarify that I think the weirdest thing about it is not that somebody would squat to pee, but rather that somebody made this sign to say squatting is a big ❌.

Michelle_mck If there are people/tourists from Asian countries the practice is different to ours - we have those posted all over Sydney 7y
BookMusings @Michelle_mck oh there are lots of Asian tourists and residents here in Vancouver, but wouldn't you squat over bowls or holes while keeping feet on the floor, not stand on toilet seats? I could also see squatting on your home toilet with bare feet or slippers or something... but it seems odd to think you should stand on a toilet seat. Just my first time seeing this kind of sign I guess. (edited) 7y
Michelle_mck You would think so but some people done do that, there is nothing worse than going to the 🚽 after that's happened 🤢 7y

pppooraikul That's one of the general problems here in my country and that sign is posted inside almost all toilets. Problem is toilet seats are not made to bear the whole body weight of a grownup and there were accidents (i.e. the seat broke suddenly and the butt bled, oops) time and again. Yet some people still never learn. 🙄😂 (edited) 7y
monkeygirlsmama @BookMusings That's what you'd expect, but such is not the case. LoL I'm currently living in China, and the number of times I've seen the aftermath of this type of toilet use suggests it is very much not uncommon. 😆🤢💩 7y
Lizpixie They even had these signs in the bathrooms at the sheep station my nephews wedding was at a few months ago, so apparently it happens everywhere😬 7y
EloisaJames Interesting! 7y
Scurvygirl Working on construction sites, I have seen some portajohns that could have used this sign. 😝 7y
