Pros |
Cons |
| This method can easily fit into a today’s family’s busy schedules | Sticking to the structure and schedule until the toddler is potty trained |
| With some planning, some structure can be created around the practice sessions i.e. in the morning and in the evening. | Could take anywhere from a weekend to a few months depending on the child’s maturity level, temperament and readiness. |
| Is done gradually over time. | May not learn to initiate him/herself, because parent always initiates. |
| Very limited accidents, if any. | Keeping the curios toddler interested long enough to sit on the potty and relax, so s/he is able to eliminate. |
