We have had some "point it down" issues but I'm trying to get him to chant POINT IT DOWN every time he sits so that it will eventually be burned into his mind. I imagine when he's actually tall enough to stand over the toilet he may change his mind about taking the time to sit ... but I'm all for making boys clean up after themselves. This kind of control doesn't last very long. Use the power. Give him the sponge.Suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10706094983971439249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606180456624000735.post-64851871770711585342007-10-17T15:18:00.000-04:002007-10-17T15:18:00.000-04:00Without going into great detail about it...

Maybe Little A will find the same preference. Don't knock it until you've tried it, right?<BR/><BR/>We don't ever have to talk about this again, right?Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12383804603177373501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8606180456624000735.post-9095963760199113142007-10-16T21:24:00.000-04:002007-10-16T21:24:00.000-04:00Sponge, I say. I remind my boys that I don't wish...Sponge, I say. I remind my boys that I don't wish to SIT in anything wet EVER ... and that includes a yawning toilet w/ the lid left up ... which is a whole 'nuther topic for posting. Granted, the sponging that my boys do barely scratches the surface, and I still do a lot of cleaning. But, if they're having to wipe up after themselves each time, it at least points their minds (if not OTHER PARTS always) to their aim. I've sworn off letting them pee in the yard cuz you never know when THAT'S gonna come back and bite you in the ... "parts."KThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846765202934147875noreply@blogger.com
