have any of your kids ever done this? i'm at my wit's end!


jason has been potty trained for 2 years, he did this last sept. and it lasted about 2 weeks, we totally ignored per the behavioralist. he strated this sept. and it is still going on.......he laughs and loves the neg. attention, i tried time out again and he loved it, total game to him.


then i went back to totally ignoring it and use positive reinforcement when he uses the potty, but it is not working!! i'm begining to think it's habitual.?..? totally ignoring is hard since jason has cp and needs total assistance with undressing and changing...


any suggestions or similar stories?


thanks,


kristin

thanks so much for sharing, did you try anything like timeout b/f the pullups, i'm petrified jason won't care and stay in diapers/pullups, i actually did it about a week ago and he didn't care, so i stopped, back to cleaning him and trying to totally ignore.....


yesterday he didn't do it once, i had high hopes it was over, today it's been 2 times so far...UGH!
