Any potty training tips? We’re doing the oh crap method but 1) kid refuses to drink much, even juice and 2) he won’t pee in the potty even when he had to go, he’ll pee on the floor right after

Also, just may not be ready. My son did exactly what you described and we went back to diapers after 4 days of trying. 6 weeks later, and he decided himself he wanted to go in the potty and that was it!

That’s actually very reassuring. He’s 2.5 and “should” be ready but today was an utter disaster (one time in the potty, about 5 “accidents”. How old was yours when he was ready?

I had a friend who showed their kid how to clean up their own “oops” . So if they don’t go in the right place, they have to clean it up, and it helps them learn where the wrong place is

I swear he’s doing it on purpose. This is literally the most frustrated I’ve been with him in 2.5 years.

If he does go in the to potty, do you reward? E.g., popsicle, goldfish

Yes he got goldfish the one and only time he went

Oh other thing to try: take his favorite stuffed animal and pretend it goes on the potty

Thanks I’ll try that next

Did you just start? It can take a while. We basically did this over thanksgiving break last year and I set a timer to take him every hour, which helped when he started getting a little bit rebellious. We have potty books that we read while we wait for pee or poo and sang the same songs so it became more routine. Lots of praise for going (we gave mini gummy bears). There were lots of accidents over that first week and it gradually got better. It’s super frustrating and even 6 months later there is still a lot of parent involvement with potty time.

Suppose you are 3 months pregnant and interviewing for a job. Would you disclose to the recruiter that you are expecting or is there no need to give that information until after being hired? As for the compensation, if you’ve already been told pre-interview, the salary range for the role, is it appropriate to negotiate a number for the salary if you are asked your desired salary in the first screening interview? Or should you try to hold off on the negotiation after you receive an offer?

I think my brother is an idiot when it comes to his dating life.

I just found out my bro is cheating on her with his ex (who is toxic/manipulative, stole money from my mother & doesn’t have a job or trying to get one). From a personality, values & looks perspective, the new girlfriend is what every guy would dream of. Im jealous &wish I could date her instead

When I asked them the reason behind this, they told me that FEI System has no physical presence in India, so 'Husys Consulting' hire on behalf of FEI System to meet legal compliance.
From the offer letter, it looks like it is third-party hiring. Should I accept this offer?
Any help would be appreciated.
