"I'm sorry, honey, but you wet your pants twice this morning. If you're big enough to wear big-boy underwear, then you're big enough to pee-pee in the potty instead of in your pants. Since you won't go by yourself when you need to go, I'm going to have to take you a lot to make sure you don't potty in your pants again." She led him to the bathroom and lifted the toilet seat as he reluctantly pulled his pants down and stood in front of the toilet. "You can go back and play either after you've pee-peed or after you've tried for five minutes."

Sharon kissed Carter's forehead. "It's okay, honey. That's why I put you in a pull-up for your nap. I thought you might be wet when you woke up. You both slept longer than usual, I thought you'd both probably pee-pee while you were sleeping, or wake up and have to go too badly to make it to the potty." She cleaned them both up and put their dry clothes from before their nap back on them, then took them to the kitchen for juice and a snack. Sharon had an idea for dealing with Carter's accidents. Thirty minutes after he and James had started playing again, she made him stop and try to go potty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon came in to check on them as they were becoming more alert. "My goodness, I thought you boys were going to sleep until bedtime!" She sat on James's bed and pulled him into her lap. She checked his diaper as she did so, not surprised to find that he was wet. She cuddled him for a few moments and set him on the floor, then gathered Carter into her arms. She gently squeezed the front of his pull-up and found that he was also wet. His pull-up was still quite warm, like he had just now wet it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Once they were finished eating, Sharon got James to try to potty and put a diaper on him. He didn't often wet during his nap, and a pull-up would be enough for when he did, but she thought a wet diaper would probably be more comfortable than a wet pull-up. Once James was ready, she got Carter to try to use the potty, but it hadn't been long enough since he'd wet his pants for him to be able to go again. "Carter, you had a lot of juice this morning, and you might sleep longer than usual, so I'm going to put a pull-up on you, okay?" Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon got him cleaned up, rinsed out his wet clothes, and took him to the kitchen. "You won't be in trouble, but you need to tell me if you have another accident, okay? You don't need to sit in wet clothes for too long." She cleaned up his accident while the boys ate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After working for a couple more hours, Sharon made lunch for herself and the boys and went to get them from the playroom. The first thing she noticed was the dark stain across the front of Carter's shorts. There was a tell-tale pee puddle not far from where he was. "James, honey, let's go wash your hands for lunch. Stay here, Carter, I'll be right back," Sharon said, not wanting to embarrass him. Sharon got James settled with his lunch and came back to Carter. "Honey, why didn't you come tell me you wet your pants?" She asked softly, kneeling beside him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Once Carter was clean again, Sharon dried him off and put one of his extra outfits on him. "All better, honey. Go play with James." Sharon did a better cleaning job on the pee spot in the play room and rinsed Carter's pee-soaked clothes out before getting back to work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

"I know, buddy, but I need to make sure you're clean. You don't want to smell like pee-pee, do you?" Sharon started the bath water and peeled Carter's wet shorts and underwear off of him before pulling his shirt over his head and setting him in the bath tub. She got some clean underwear and shorts from his bag while his bath filled up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon gave James a warning look before he could say anything. "I'm not angry, sweetheart, I know you didn't do it on purpose. Just try to pay attention and go potty before you have to pee-pee so badly that it's hard to hold it. If James is in the closest bathroom, then go to another one, okay? If you don't wait until it's an emergency before you go potty, then you can hold it long enough to get to another bathroom." Sharon wiped up Carter's puddle on the floor with wet wipes so James wouldn't step in it, took Carter's hand, and led him to the bathroom. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After working for a while, Sharon got up to check on the boys. She heard the now-familiar sound of pee-pee hitting the floor before she even reached the play room. Her heart sank when she went in and found a teary-eyed Carter, still holding his crotch as a dark stain spread across the front of his shorts and pee-pee streamed down his legs and pooled around his feet. "Uh-oh, honey, you had an accident." She got some wet wipes and cleaned his hands, legs, and the bottom of his feet. The poor child had soaked himself. "You need a quick bath. Let's get you cleaned up really quick." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon kissed his cheek. "I know you'll still have accidents sometimes, and that's not a big deal. But you should be making it to the potty most of the time. I'll be working while you guys play, but call for me if you need me. And when you have to go potty, it's right there. You don't have to ask. Just go when you need to." Sharon got sippy cups of watered-down juice for both boys before she started working.

Sharon put her hands on Carter's cheeks. "Listen to me, honey. I'm not going to remind you to go potty. You're a big boy, and you know when you have to go. James is a few months younger than you and still needs to be reminded, but you don't. But, if I see that you won't go potty when you know you have to pee-pee, then I'm going to start making you stop playing a lot to make you try to go. You know where the bathrooms are, and you're too big to wet your pants when you don't have to worry about finding a bathroom or waiting in line." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon and Anna talked for a few more minutes. Once Anna was gone, Sharon went to find the boys. She took Carter's hand and led him around to remind him where the bathrooms were. "Your mommy said you can go potty without any help, so go to the closest bathroom when you have to pee-pee, okay? I'll be working, but call out for me if you want help or if you have an accident. You won't be in trouble, I'll just need to change your clothes." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anna arrived soon after breakfast with Carter. "Are you sure you don't mind watching him today?" Sharon smiled. "Not at all. James is easier when there's another child here to help keep him entertained." Anna put Carter's bag on the counter. "I packed several extra outfits. He's already pooped this morning, which, thankfully, he still does in the toilet, but he hasn't initiated a pee trip to the potty in a couple of weeks. Either one of us have noticed he had to go and have taken him, or he's wet his pants. There are a couple of pull-ups for when he's down to his last outfit, but feel free to put one on him any time. I don't want you to spend all day cleaning up after him." "Don't worry," Sharon assured her. "Cleaning up pee-pee is nothing new around here. We'll be fine." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

"No, you didn't! You're going to the potty by yourself more and more, too. It won't be long until you can wear big-boy pants!" Sharon cleaned him up and dressed him in cloth training pants, shorts, and a t-shirt before taking him to the kitchen for breakfast. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon had been waking up, herself, and went into the bathroom when she heard the commotion, just knowing she was going to have a mess to clean up after a sleepy two-year-old tried to go potty by himself. He'd done well, though. "Good boy, James!" She praised. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

"That's right, but you need a little more practice before you always know when you have to go potty in time to get there without having an accident. It still sneaks up on you, sometimes, doesn't it?" Sharon reached back and patted James's leg. "Carter wasn't in trouble, and you'll never get in trouble for an accident, either, as long as you tell Mommy or Daddy when you feel like you need to potty and try to go potty when we tell you to." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

"Not quite," Sharon answered. "But you're getting there. Carter's a little bit bigger than you are, and he's been practicing using the potty longer than you have. You don't always realize you have to potty in time to tell me before you have an accident, but Carter does. He just doesn't like to stop playing so he can go potty and keep his pants dry."

Sharon buckled James into his car seat and drove away from the park. "He pee-peed in his pants, and his mommy didn't bring more clothes for him, because he's big enough to tell her he has to potty in time to find one before he goes in his pants." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
-
"Sorry, honey, but you should've told Mommy you had to go potty. I told you we'd have to go home if you pottied in your pants." Anna held Carter's hand and left the park with Sharon and James. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

"All right, Carter couldn't be a big boy and tell Mommy he had to go pee-pee, so we have to go home," Anna said pointedly. "Anna? Why don't you let me watch Carter tomorrow?" Sharon suggested. "I'm obviously not an expert potty-trainer, but maybe he'll do better with someone he's comfortable with, but who's not his parent." Anna nodded. "I'll try anything."

"Shh, James, it was an accident," Sharon chastised as she picked him up. "And your pull-up is wet, too. You know you're supposed to tell Mommy when you wet your pull-up." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sharon and Anna noticed what was happening. "Ugh," Anna muttered. "He knows very well that he has to go, but he can't be bothered. I'm not just taking him anymore, though, unless he tells me. He's old enough to tell me he has to go." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

"I don't think that's really punishing him, though," Sharon said. It's more of a natural consequence, and you warned him about what would happen if he didn't use the potty. He's old enough to understand."
