I have a 3yo boy who is potty training resistant. I tried to begin training @ 1.5 years.?

At that time, he showed signs of readiness. He then simply began refusing to go to the potty & then began to tell me, while laughing, that he just peed or pooped in his pants. He REFUSES to sit on the potty at all. I have tried to even offer going outside or in the shower. I have taken diapers away completely & he had an absolute meltdown. I have bought a seat to fit on the toilet, a step stool, & a potty chair. He refuses each way. He peed his pants yesterday & kicked and screamed for me to change him & put a diaper back on. I explained no more diapers. We are using underwear with vinyl pants over them. He hasn’t pooped in 2 days now & I am getting worried. He is NOT afraid of the potty; he is just extremely strong willed. I did manage to get him to pee in the shower this morning but he refused the rest of the day, peeing in the floor tonight. Any suggestions?

Drop it for a while. This is not about potty training – it’s about control and he obviously has it. If you don’t make an issue of it, forget about it for a while, you might have better luck when you try to resume. boys are usually slower at this than girls. Learn to pick your battles – he’s only 3 – and he has HOW many more years in the home?
