Anyone else have trouble with potty-training?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Our son has apraxia so we put off potty-training until he was a bit

more verbal. But from the moment we started, he was EXTREMELY

unwilling. He will cry all day if we have him in underwear. After

months he got to the point where he's not deathly afraid of the potty,

but he has yet to poop there. He always asks for a diaper to poop.

He also won't go out in public without his diaper. Our older son was

also challenging to train, but not this difficult. I wonder if this

is common with apraxic kids or if it has nothing to do with apraxia.

Maybe we just need to put up with the screaming until he gets it.

Thoughts?
