Anger / Frustration does not work. That only scares them. Persistence and Consistency is key to training our li'l ones. Contrary to what may seem, they do not lay awake nights scheming how to irk mommy by going potty on her persian rug.
Abbie just turned one a few days ago, and I'd say it was between 8 and 9 months that we could really say she was trained. She is trained to paper in the house, and I had to convince her ONE place was acceptable. |
