Why Is this Parent Pressuring a Child Care Provider to Start Potty Training?
Why Is this Parent Pressuring a Child Care Provider to Start Potty Training?I’ve run a home daycare for 10 years. I’ve potty trained countless children successfully. Currently, I have a child who shows all the signs of readiness and is doing great with potty training. Another isn’t ready and uses the potty only as a toy. His mom keeps pressuring me to continue (despite nothing but accidents for weeks) and says he goes well at home. She often compares her son to the other child and always asks why her child isn’t on the toilet, too. It’s as if she’s jealous. I’ve tried to remain professional but she becomes argumentative and tells me I’m wrong about her child not being ready. What can I do?Answer: Is he really going at home? Unfortunately you have no real way of knowing if what she says about her child is true and you put yourself in a tough spot if you start doubting and second-guessing. Parents are the primary caregivers and have a relationship with their own child that surpasses anyt
