Potty Training Problems
It's not uncommon for a child to be struggling with potty training. They may have started out well and then regressed leaving the parents wanting to pull their hair out.
Potty accidents were on occasion and now are frequently occurring.
So what is a parent to do?
Potty accidents and regression happens and it's okay. You may have taken two steps back with potty training. The great thing is that it can be reversed.
Getting your child on a schedule, being consistent and praising your child will bring positive results. Encourage your child and give them a nudge with using the potty. Make it a fun and exciting time in their life even when they have accidents. Get them involved with the process because it is about them! Granted they may not be enjoying cleaning the mess they made though this will reinforce them to make an effort to use the potty.
Make potty training a positive experience even when there are setbacks. This will instill in the child to keep trying.

Great information on your Blog...I was so lucky with my daughter, but when my son came along it was a different story...
Dr. Gregory A. Barrett has a great website and forum that has humorous and informative articles on various parenting topics. He was very helpful with our son.

Don't know how to get my 6 year old to stop being lazy and peeing when she is too busy playing! We've even taken her to the doc to see if there is a problem, none. We do stickers and rewards, and reminding. And all is well for a month. Then BOOM! It goes back to where it was. :(
