RE: OT Herbal Cure for toddlerism?

[Guest guest]

YES! LOL! Now this was a long time ago, but when my mother trained

my little brother (He's 6 years younger than me) she would give him a

new matchbox car every time he would use the potty. When he got the

hang of peeing, he only got rewarded for pooping on the potty. After

about a month of NO accidents of any kind. She stopped rewarding him.

He did revert back, but by this time he was in underwear exclusively

and it was much less comfortable. He only did this for a day or two,

I think befor returning to the potty chair.

NOTE: Yes, a new Matchbox car EVERY TIME he went for MONTHS. My

brother is 19 now and STILL has a HUGE box full of them. But it did

do the trick and he is definitely STUBBORN. Mom had tried a long time

and this was the only thing that worked.
