Toilet Training Without Tantrums

In his fifteenth parenting book, nationally-recognized expert John Rosemond lays to rest the notion that potty training must be the complicated, emotionally draining, stressful event it has become for children and parents. Your great-grandmother would be amazed to learn that toilet training has become one of mom's greatest sources of anxiety and frustration during her child's early years. To great-Grandma, it was no worse than teaching her child to use a spoon. Rosemond does not write from the perspective of a psychologist, but with the common sense and authority derived from thirty years of counseling parents, two children and seven grandchildren of his some, some of whom he helped toilet train. He advises an old-fashioned approach to toilet training that would have earned Grandma's stamp of approval. This book is helpful, revealing, and funny. Best of all, the method works! Thousands and thousands of parents have used it to discover how easy toilet training can be.
