praise

Saben: " Mommy, I pooped!"
Mom: "Woo hoo! That is so awesome Saben! I am so excited!"
Saben gets up to look at it & points
Saben: "You like that big poop mommy?"
Mom: "uh...yah, I really like it"

What exactly am I teaching him again???

LOL!!! My daughter has just learned to poop in the potty and I have to do lots of telling her how wonderful her poop is. Sigh.

Recently she told me after going that she "loved" her poop (very proudly, of course!). Then she thought for a moment and said, "Daddy can take it to work!" This was after him telling her how much he liked her painting and was going to take it to work with him.

I told him he had the choice...painting or poop. She had offered both as works of art.

Kids.
