One question that gets brought up often is should I potty train my son sitting on the potty or teach him to stand?
Speaking as a mom of two boys, I recommend teaching them sitting down first. You want them to work on potty training then show them there is another way for them to pee.
If you have a private lot or go somewhere that does, such as grandma and grandpas you can integrate this into potty training. For my youngest son I would point out something close by for him to aim at. He has so much fun getting to “play a game” while peeing outside.
As for inside you can purchase the toilet targets, use color food dye, cheerios as a way to teach your son how to stand and pee in the potty. These are also great tools when you are first teaching them about using the potty. And on a side note: it can also teach them to aim in the potty and not all over everything else!
Remember that consistency is the most important part of potty training along with having a positive attitude. What you are feeling does affect your child.
