Potty Training Music Man was a struggle. It truly was a BATTLE of wills. We tried so many things before initiating our own "Potty Training Boot Camp". But it worked out for all of us in the end.
I'm consolidating the posts I wrote as we were going through this process to make it easier on anyone who would like to read and learn from our example (the good and the bad). But before you start, ask yourself a VERY important question......ARE YOU SURE THAT YOU AND YOUR CHILD IS READY FOR POTTY TRAINING? Because if the answer is "NO", this will not be successful. And once you start, you CAN'T go back!
Good luck to all of you starting this process. I wish you a quick success and a diaper-free life!!!!

I originally tried to actually copy the texts over, but that wasn't working. Instead, I'm providing each of the links to all of the posts I wrote. Hopefully you will find this helpful.

This is our story as of right now. If anyone here is about to embark on Potty Training Boot Camp, I wish you well!!!! Just remember, before you start, you need to be sure that your child is ready for this. Because once you start, you CANNOT back down. When it comes to the Battle of the Wills, YOURS has to prevail.
Good luck to all of you!
