UNTIL YOU'VE WALKED A MILE.....
Quote From: steve_malachiWell I must say I am so shocked that a 9 and 15 yr old is NOT Potty Tranied.
I have a 2 and a half year old son and he gose to the potty everday.
I have just been in hosipatal and need help to go to the toliet and I hatted it.
I really hope that Dr.Phil can help this mother with her children,I feel she NEEDS help........ I think we're looking past the fact that this is a medical disorder and has nothing to do with bad parenting or immature children. I TOTALLY applaud these parents for the bravery they showed by going forward with this problem. My child has had this problem - albeit not for 13 years - but it is very, very difficult to get help because you are immediately branded a horrible parent, even if you have nothing but the utmost love and concern for your child. I have also talked with other parents - terrific parents - who experienced this with their own children, and have watched the fear come over their children who cannot help the fact that their own bodies just don't recognize signals the way it should, and they too have been stigmatized by their own so-called friends and families. Keep an open mind. It has nothing to do with your two year old being smarter, you're just lucky your child did not have to experience this heart-wrenching disorder.
