• How do you know when your child is ready to start reading?
• How do you know when your child is ready to start school?
• How do you know when your child is ready to start riding a bike?

The answer is you don’t.  Just as you don’t know with babies potty training.

But at one point you are going to begin teaching them.

Just think about it for a minute.

When you decide to start teaching your child how to read, what will be your deciding factor? Do you think your child will bring you a book and say “I want to start reading!”

Do you think maybe one day you will find your three year old in his/her room trying to read a book?

Chances are this is not what’s going to happen.

Most children don’t want to start reading.

Want to know why?  It’s hard work.

It’s easier not to know how to read, than it is to spend months learning the alphabet.

Don’t worry, most adults are the same way.

The majority of people don’t like learning new things.

Isn’t it true most people don’t volunteer to learn a new skill at work even though they are ready to do the work?

Why is that?

It’s uncomfortable. It’s hard work. Getting people out of their comfort zone is not easy.

From a human behavior standpoint, we are no different today than when we were kids.

So how do you know when your child is ready for baby potty training?

You don’t. The question is how do you know when you are ready toto start potty training your baby.  Only you have the answer to that question.

Keep reading and I will tell you when I decided to start potty training my baby or better babies.

It will be up to you if you want to do the same.

But first let me tell you, why the power should be in your hands.

Most psychologist will tell you to look for signs your child is ready for potty training.

Here are some of those baby potty training signs:

• The child asks you to go to the bathroom.
• The child wakes up dry.
• The child does the pee pee dance (holding it and wiggling).
• The child takes off their diaper.
• The child goes to the bathroom themselves.
• The child hides before bowel movements.

According to these signs, doesn’t it appear to you the child is already exhibiting signs of being potty trained?

I mean, if the child is waking up dry already, what more do you need?

So you can either wait for your child to show you signs, or you can be proactive.

Depending on your child, if you wait for them, they might not show you a ready sign until they are 3 years of age.

By that time you’ve lost a year of peace and tranquility that comes with a fully potty trained child.

For me the start date is really easy. The day each one of my kids turned 2 was the day they started potty training.

For me 2 years of age is the right time. Remember a 2 year old can do a lot of things.

I figure if you are smart enough to tell me no and jump off the couch, then you are smart enough to use the potty.
