Wow, I also used duct tape, or packaging when I ran out. Masking tape worked
the best as I could rip it off easier but the little ones couldn't. If your
son is consistent about using the potty and was doing it more before,
pull-ups might be better as they give him more control and help him feel
more like a big boy. BTW, you can clean up anything without any sight, trust
me on this, I've had lots o practice. :)

It depends on the day with him, each day is different!
He'll take them off, and goe into the bathroom, he will go on pot if I
prompt him, but he will attempt to do it himself, and he goes on the
bathroom floor.
I can see enough to  slean it up if nec ... the huby cant, and its his mum
that down talks him.
We got pull-ups, he hasn't figured how to rip them off ... he says I have to
pee pee, we sit him down, ffor half hour, and he'll get up and go pee pee.

Rhonda,
Kidnapping is I think a state or federal crime. If grandma is threatening
this, get the police involved. It happens enough by family with disputes
over kids that the police will take it seriously. 
As for diapers, duct tape holds them in place. If he's peeing all over the
place, and you aren't seemingly to be aware of it or having trouble cleaning
it up, I can see why folks would think his using the potty is blindness
related. 
My kid was about eighteen months whens he stopped wanting to wear diapers.
She showed slight interest in the potty because she figured that'd get her
away from the diapers. It didn't mean that she was anywhere near using the
potty. If she ever did go in the potty, it was more dumb luck then real
thinking.

Corban started ripping diapers off at 11 1/2 months ... we got him
underpance, and he thought it was the biggest thing in the world! ...
wich
to him, it was!
He pooped in the potty, and peed in his pance form 12 months til seventeen
1/2 monghs.
Now, he's 22 1/2 months, and will pee/poop once a week!
Some day's he'll pee several times in the potty wich he gets chocolate for,
and he likes money, so each poop we give him 2 quarters.

He can identify his change ... 
For his age, he tested at the level of a 3 year old, so his cognative
development I'm not worried about.
At 22 1/2 months, he knows over 2 hundred I write his new words down in his
baby book!
By 12 months he was speaken in 2 word sintences like drink please  or nap
time! ...
Now he can say
Mom, I want Water in my cippy please!

So, in that area I'm not worried at all.

TY

Each child is different, and I doubt the age has anything to do with being
blind.  I knew a kid who was not out of diapers until he went to
kindergarten.
My oldest Sadie was almost 30 months, and she was almost 4 before being
night trained.
My middle child, Mia is 25 months, and she will use the potty when she
wants, and that might be a few times a day, to not at all.

WHYE IT CAME TO POTTY TRAINING YOUR TODDLER, HOW OLD WAS HE/SHE?

CORBAN MY SON IS 22 MONTHS, HE WILL POOP/PEE ON THE POTTY ONCE A WEEK, AND
NOW WANT TO GO ANYMORE UNTIL THE NEXT MORE.

Many say its because we are blind, and its not normal.

I'v only bee with girls, never boys, so I don't know what's norm or not.

Also

F
or nursing mom's

I nursed Corban for 18 months 9 monnths 3 times daily, and afterwards at
night . was weaning difficult for you?

He's really good during the day, but wants to nurse at night.

We give him a cippy wich he throws, and continues to scream for about 30
mins.

I'm not sure if it's because  he wants to nurse, or if he doesn't want to
sleep alone.

We started him off in our bed in fear of someone wil kidnap him .. as a 1st
time mommy, I would dr  eam, we'd wake, and he'd be gone.

Also my MIL would threaten to come in the middle of the night and take him .
so he slept in the bed with the huby and I . and trying to get him into his
own bed . is a struggle!

Also, we're going threw mommy sepperation issues now fun!

Does anyone know where I can get educational toddler toys that I can use to
teach him more.

He can right letter aa-h numbers 1 to 5 knows all his colors shapes etc.

He'll be 2 and I want to get him something more structured for his age!

.

Also, what do you think of Child Leaches?

Rhonda
