In the face of young children, parents always want them to grow up faster and master more skills. However, sometimes parents may seem too anxious, perhaps they do not know that some things that seem simple to adults are not easy for children.
Now many new parents will learn some so-called parenting knowledge online, and in this knowledge, there is a term called toilet training. They preach that babies should be trained to go to the toilet when they are one and a half years old, so that parents can soon let go and let the baby go to the toilet by himself.
Therefore, when some parents see that their children will not go to the toilet by themselves when they are two years old, they will be anxious, and even take their children everywhere to see a doctor, thinking that there is a problem with their children's development. These unreliable toilet training "golden period" fooled many mothers.
But in fact, one and a half years old is not the best period for children's toilet training, and there is no unified judgment on the golden period of toilet training, and it depends on the specific situation of the baby.
When is it appropriate to train your child to go to the toilet?
Because each child's growth rules are different, if all children have to receive toilet training at the age of one and a half years old, it is likely that the gains will outweigh the losses.
1. Children can understand their parents' words
Parents need to do some preparation before training their children to go to the toilet. One of the most important points is to let the child know the part of his body and let the child know the difference between bowel and urination.
Of course, parents must tell their children when they need to go to the toilet, because many children do not show it at the first time when they have a desire to defecate. Even if they already feel uncomfortable, they still have to wait until they pull on their pants to tell their parents.
Only parents let their children know that they should be informed in time when they have a desire to defecate, and children can understand when they should sit on the toilet by themselves. If children can't understand their parents at all, then it is obviously too hasty to train them like this.
2, children can have a certain degree of autonomous behavior
To train your child to go to the toilet, you must make sure that your child can walk well on their own, because then they can run to the toilet alone when they want to go to the toilet.
At the same time, children should also have the ability to take off their pants and wear pants, find that they do not resist the toilet, and can sit quietly on the toilet for a few minutes. If children are able to perform these behaviors on their own, then parents can train them properly to go to the toilet.
3 precautions when training your child on the toilet
Toilet training is led by the baby, actively completing the process of urination and defecation. So, there are some things to be aware of.
Note 1: Do not be too hasty
Parents must be patient with their children, especially when training their babies at the beginning. Because most babies will not initially adapt to pulling on the toilet.
Therefore, it is very likely that the moment they left the toilet, they could not pull down the rice dumplings for a long time and instantly soiled their pants.
At this time, parents must not blame their children, otherwise it is easy for him to have a greater resistance to the toilet. Give some encouragement to increase the child's confidence, so that in the subsequent toilet training, it will be more smooth.
Note 2: Respect your child's choices
Sometimes parents will find that their children will suddenly develop resistance after a period of toilet training. At this time, parents must not force their children, but through observation and communication, to understand the real reasons why children resist tolerance training.
If the child really does not want to do toilet training at a certain stage, then parents may wish to go with the flow. Because only by ensuring their interest in toilet training can children take the initiative to sit on the toilet, otherwise it will only backfire.
Note 3: Choose clothes that fit well
When the child first carries out toilet training, parents should choose the pants for them as much as possible, so that the child can take off the pants smoothly at the first time and sit on the toilet to pull out the rice dumplings.
If the clothes that parents choose for their children are not suitable for them to operate alone, it is likely to cause children to have inferiority complex in toilet training, so that they resist this behavior, which is naturally not conducive to training.
In the early hours of the morning, mom came to nag:
Toilet training should be carried out step by step, parents should not be too anxious, give the baby a little time, and patiently carry out. When your baby's toilet training is done, you will feel that he has grown up a lot at once!
