Shafeen was 1 year and 8 months old when the picture was
taken.

My son needed diaper for long time, till he became 3 and
half years old. I was very tense for this condition. Couldn't find out the way
how to give him potty training. From 5 months of his age, I bought potty. But
he denied doing anything with it. When he became 2 years old, I took him to
Bashundhara city shopping complex and ask him to choose any potty he wants and
I will buy it for him. He chooses one which has duck head. Fine, I bought it
for him. But again he didn't use it. I told him I will give you chocolate, if
you use potty. Didn't work. I started reading articles how to give potty training
on net. My sisters started laughing at me, but I really needed to know how to
solve this problem. You know “mummy’s poko pant” isn't cheap. And I have also
read that till 4 years old, it’s natural to use diaper and on those days, he
was 3 years old. By this time my son gets addicted with computer, for game and
drawing (Photoshop, pain, Ms Word etc). So, I started blackmailing him. If you
don’t tell me that you need to go to the toilet, you will be banned to touch
the computer for the rest of the day. Now the magic happens. My son doesn't want to miss to touch the computer. He started using toilet. Long live
computers.
After that he didn't give me any pain regarding this matter.
Now if he needs to go to the toilet even when he is in deep sleep, he woke up
and tells me to take him to toilet. My next training was easy to teach him how
to use toilet without mommy. He learnt, but don’t want to do all heavy work (?)
by him always. But it’s OK I hope soon he will like to be independent by
himself.
