Kids go from one extreme to the other. First they want a dinner at the toilet because they love it so much. Have you ever seen a 3 year old drag a sleeping bag to the potty? It gives a whole new meaning to the term "water bed"!
Then, they decide they don't like the potty anymore. I don't know what causes this. Maybe they get offended because they give so much to the potty and it never gives anything back. Whatever the reason, all of a sudden your toddler becomes like a black hole- stuff goes in, but NOTHING EVER COMES BACK OUT!
You all of a sudden become the poopie patrol. You will actually start praying more for poopie than you do for money. While your child sits on the potty, you perch on the side of the tub, holding your breath, listening for a splash. The splash, as with money, never comes.
So it's time for you to become the bad guy. You have to give your child a laxative. You undress the child and get an ENEMA ready. As you turn around, the kid sees what you're holding and guess what... You just SCARED the poopie out of her!!
