...If you could remember your own potty training, you?d probably recall a time filled with anxiety & glee, frustration & a sense of accomplishment, triumphal joy & shamed remorse. You?d remember wanting so much to make mommy & daddy happy, & at the same time to make them pay for being so darned unreasonable. & you?d recall feeling incredibly grown up once you got it right. Maybe if we could remember our own potty training, it wouldn?t be so tough when it came our turn to be the trainers.
