potty training question

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I have a question to all all, is 5 and in summer school starting

tommarow we are starting potty training. we will be using the nytone

alarm and underware. for those of you who have been thru this what kind

of results did you have with the trip training and the alarms? s

summer school program is almost all summer, he will go up untill a week

before school starts back, not everyone gets this program and it is the

first year for it. In the last iep meeting i left saying the due process

word because they offered us 4 weeks of 1/2 day. yea right i said c- ya

in mediation. needless to say after many calls from the superintendent

and principle of the school we all came to and agreement.

Anyway back to the original thought, the doctor the school district has

hired to work with , and his programming said he feels will

be potty trained by end of summer. Starting kindergarted trained. is

this realistic. Now remember keep in mind is a child diagnosised

with moderate level of intellectuall impairement and severe autism. I

guess I just don't want to get my hopes up. but at hope he loves to

ware his underware as oposed to his diaper, but I guess I would to. I

got him one of those little pottys that sing a song when you flush it.

it doesnt't really flush but the handle is connected to a music box

thing. He is only 30 pounds so he is too small for the bigh pottys even

the ones at school...

Well let me know what you all think.

Thanks-- mom to Alek 8, 7, 5 DS/ASD, Logan 31/2,
