review 1: 2 stars (it was ok).Not the worst book I've read but it really does only sell one method of training, and seeing as every parent and child each is an individual and probably needs to be treated as such I fealt like there should have atleast been a plan b and plan c training method for those wee tykes that learn differently. Also I found certain sections of information to be very gender bias. I'm sure that little boys need not lag behing their female peers in terms of skill development, it's just a case of tailoring the teaching method to the different approach to learning that is either innate or unknowlingly encouraged onto our kids.
review 2: "SERIOUSLY?!?!?" That was what I kept repeating as I read this book. I had high hopes for this one. It promised laid-b... moreack "sessions" that (in theory) seemed like they would work best for my crazy schedule, and the Amazon reviews were glowing. I never did figure out exactly what these "sessions" were supposed to entail and I am now wondering if the Amazon reviewers were insane. This book actually instructs you to encourage you child to pee in the bathtub. WHAT??? It's "tips" for dealing with long trips to exotic locales is to not go. Yeah, that's helpful. However, the part that really lost me was when it said that you shouldn't worry about your toddler having to go to the bathroom when you are out at the park: he can just POOP ON THE GROUND if there is no bathroom handy. They actually encourage you to have your boy "water the plants." WTF????????????? At one point the author reveals that her oldest son still needs help wiping himself.... Maybe you shouldn't be writing potty training manuals... just sayin'. Yeesh!!! less
