Five Reasons Why My Toddler Must Embrace Potty Training

The sweet taste of success is almost within reach. While I’ve never actually tasted triumph in any traditional sense, I can imagine it must be akin to savoring a delicious dessert. Perhaps it resembles the joy of a well-earned glass of wine? As my youngest, my forever baby, approaches the two-year mark, each diaper change serves as a reminder that we are one step closer to transitioning from diapers to big-boy underwear—preferably adorned with superhero designs. I am ready for him to trade his velcro-clad diapers for a moment of glory in front of the toilet.

Here are five compelling reasons to initiate potty training:

  1. Unmatched Strength
    At only 21 months and weighing in at 39 pounds, my son possesses an incredible amount of strength. Picture a toddler version of a giant—it’s almost unimaginable trying to change his diaper without a wrestling match. The days of gentle diaper changes are long gone; it’s time for him to learn how to use the toilet.
  2. Curiosity About His Body
    Boys have an innate curiosity about their bodies, and toddlers are no exception. The diaper change becomes a game of tug-of-war as he explores his anatomy with complete disregard for hygiene. It’s not just silly; it’s time-consuming and messy.
  3. Fascination with Toilets
    My toddler views toilets as if they are playgrounds. He is drawn to them, often turning them into makeshift water tables, much to my dismay. Either he’s ready to learn how to use the toilet, or he’s destined to be the best plumber in town.
  4. Frequency of Diaper Changes
    It’s simply not normal to have five diaper changes in a single day and then miraculously skip a Sunday. The consistency of his bowel movements is a clear indicator that it’s time for him to learn the ropes of using the toilet.
  5. Love for Dance and Music
    Imagine a toddler dancing around the house, completely nude, grooving to catchy tunes. However, without potty training, such carefree dancing could result in unfortunate accidents. To truly bust a move, he must first learn to control his bodily functions.

With the holiday season approaching, the urgency for my child to become potty trained is evident. One cannot enjoy dancing to classic tunes unless they have mastered the art of using the toilet—unless, of course, you happen to be my grandmother, who gets a pass.
