My son will sit on his potty seat , what is our next step to get him potty training?

Answers:
No kidding, I gave my daughter a book to read once she started sitting on the potty. She sat down and read it until she went. When she did I praised her and told her good job. She knew what the potty was for she just had the timing wrong. After a few days she started to notice the "feeling" when she had to go. Just remember every kid is different.

Squeeze him or shake him like a ketchup bottle.

you should do what i did for my kids... beat the living **** out of them everytime they **** up and eventually they stop ******* up cause they realize they get hurt everytime they do

Hey I wanted to say good luck and I hope some one gives you a serious answer cause I'd like to know too

i think in my experience when i potty trainned my son is maybe you should think about letting him see dad go potty he may get the idea of what he is expected to do not any children that i have known have ever been so dumb as in nott to know of what they are expected to do on the potty when he does number one praise him and when he does number 2 i think a treat would be in order you know as in maybe buying him a special toy only do that a couple times and they can be inexpensive toys

my own experience and did i say my son is now a 22 year old !!!! and may i also say he is very much so potty trainned ha ha ha

Have you tried sitting him on when he first gets up in the morning or after his nap? The bladder is usually full and he'll most likely go. However my son liked standing from the start so you might want to give that a try to.

Good luck!!

When my son finally sat down on his thats all he did so I poured cool water down there.(He would just set there and want to play) It would make him shiver but i don't know if he acually peed.So then I started turning on the water in the sink and letting it run.That worked and I hugged him and clapped when he did. He was excited and wanted to do it again.I got this idea because I can go to the bathroom and not have to do anything but as soon as I hear the water run I usually have to go. Be patient he'll get it. Don't forget the hugs and kisses when he does.Good Luck. Also a friend of mine put water in the potty and added some cheerios. The Idea being he had to dunk them.

Take him out of diapers, switch to pull ups. This will make going to the potty easier, then make regular/frequent trips to the potty. And reward him when he goes on the potty with praise, applause or stickers, a m & m, or something small that he likes. Maybe set a kitchen timer to go off every 30-45 minutes and then make a trip to the potty. My son just seemed to learn from the constant trips and positive reinforcement. And when he was ready to stop going in the pull up/diaper, he did. I really think that when kids are ready they just do it. My neice was about 2.5 yrs when she got it and my son was nearly 3. So every child is different.

My son was close to three before he really showed any serious interest. So, I bought him a book about potty training that had stickers and a chart in the back. Everytime he went pee-pee he got to peel off a sticker and put it on the chart. When he got to the end, he had reached his goal and we made a trip to the toy store so he could get a special toy he had been wanting. However, getting him to poop in the potty took a little longer. Also, if you are using a potty chair that sits on the floor and that doesn't seem to work, try the one that just fits over the regular toilet seat. They are softer and make the "hole" of the potty look smaller.

Well my daughter is having trouble doing the same. But now she is doing it on her own, I take her in there and potty with her and she pottys too. For a boy, put something in the potty, like a penny or something small, then tell him to aim at it, and hit it. Then when he does it, reward him with his favorite food or a toy. Make it fun for him and he will start on his own. Don't push him, when he gets ready, he will go on his own. My daughter, I let her go when she tells me she has to go. good luck

I turned the water on in the sink just a little and it seemed to work really good. I hope that helps.
