Toilet training can be very trying on both parents and children.
We have some tips from expert, Meg Zweiback, designed to help your child achieve this milestone with ease. For some children, although they're interested in imitating parents during the second year of life, that is between one and two years, they're not terribly interested in doing things to be cooperative with parents. For most children, this kind of cooperation begins around age two. In the past, I think parents often started toilet training as early as 15 to 18 months. Nowadays, we think it is a lot better to wait until about two.
