What age should you teach your child to clean herself/himself after going poo?




Answers:
I must be the odd ball here, but our kids usually start around 4. I have had too many problems with it ending up all over the toilet, walls, doors, pants, etc. When there is a mess it isn't something that you can do much about other than saying no and cleaning it up. It is SOOOoo not worth the mess to me, so we have ours wait until they are starting preK. Usually they are able to handle it by then and do an okay job. After all, it is rarely more than 2 times a day and still a lot easier than diapers. (or completely cleaning the bathroom and giving bath unexpectedly)
