...Jordan Bittner May 14, 2012 Research Paper Introduction: My research topic was on toilet training for toddlers, which is very important in the early years of children. I have never done any research on toilet training so this was all very new information and definitely well-needed. There is so much information on toilet training that I will go into later on in my paper. Information on toilet training is very important for parents, caregivers, siblings, babysitters, and day care centers. Anyone who is going to be around young toddlers should have vast amounts of knowledge on the subject and plenty of experience. Description: I introduced the potty to Emma when she was 18 months. I bought her one of those small potty chairs and explained to her this was her special potty. At this time I didn't yet push the potty we were just introducing it to her. I also would let her watch me use the toilet and explain to her "Mommy was going pee-pee on the potty like big girls do!" We will start with the basics to get full understanding of the topic. Toilet training is training a young child to use the toilet. Learning to use the toilet is a big step for toddlers and it can be difficult for some. Some children just seem to train themselves when they are ready, but many need some help from their parents. Parents see toilet training as an important milestone for their children and often become very concerned if it doesn't all go smoothly. For toddlers it is something new to learn...

...Toilet training is an important part of any kid’s life and when it comes down to kids with developmental delays, it is one of the most monumental moments. The purpose of this particular study was to successfully toilet train kids with autism and developmental delays in the school setting. Throughout this experiment, the paraprofessionals were tracking for correct behavior. The correct behavior in this case being, correctly urinating and/or defecating in the toilet without accidents on self. This study involved an intervention procedure which required the child to be sent to the bathroom every 30 minutes or so, they were reinforced for correct bathroom behavior by being given whatever it is they desire (food, candy, games, etc.) for a certain amount of time....

...be learning and copying form the practitioner and will most likely keep that type of behaviour as they grow older. [C.Meggitt, 2015, Pages 100-101] The practitioner should also be supporting the child’s physical development. Children are too young to be able to support their own physical development so should be receiving help off of the practitioner. For example, the child will not be able to go outside and play on their own, they will need supervision, meaning the practitioner will have to go outside and play with them. Another example is when they are toilet training. Toilet training will have to be done both at the setting and home; otherwise the child will not understand. The child will not be able to understand the concept of using a toilet when they need to as they will have been using nappies, therefore will need the help of a practitioner to understand the need to use a toilet and helping them reach the toilet when needed. [C.Meggitt, 2015, Pages 112-116] Arnold Gesell was a theorist who discussed norms or development. He devised a set of ‘norms’ which the child can be measured against to allow practitioners to check if a child is developing at the average rate a child their age would be. On the SchoolWorkHelper.net, they said Gesell argued that ‘the best way to raise children requires reasonable guidance, rather than permissiveness or rigidity.’ This means that children should have help in their development, rather than be left with the freedom. Gesell’s work...

...potty training refusal Toilet training done badly can lead to medical complications, including dysfunctional voiding, constipation and impaction-and even child abuse. This article describes in detail how to treat toilet training problems before they cause harm. Toilet training can be defined as delayed if the child is over 3 years of age, has normal development, and is not toilet trained after three or more months of training. (This definition excludes families who have not yet started toilet training.) Usually the delay is in bowel training. Taubman found that 22% of bladder-trained children were not bowel trained one month after completing bladder training.' [For information on toilet training basics, see "Toilet training: Getting it right the first time," in the March issue, accessible at wwwcontemporarypediatrics.com. ] Although the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Primary Care Child and Adolescent Version uses 4 years of age as a cutoff for abnormal toilet training delays, it makes sense to evaluate delays at 3 years of age to prevent ongoing harmful approaches by parents. If the parents are mishandling toilet training problems, it's a mistake to allow them to continue to do so for an additional year before intervening. If, for example, parents are punishing the child for noncompliance or forcibly holding the child on the toilet, these negative interactions will be much harder to undo and repair with time. Calling delays abnormal can wait until 4 years...

...Some ways a parent can benefit from potty training their children are: Save up to $80 a month by not having to buy expensive diapers and wipes. Run your errands and not have to carry a heavy diaper bag. Be able to use a public restroom and not look for a changing table. Help your child build their confidence. Steps on knowing your child is ready for potty training: Does your child seem interested in the potty chair or toilet, or in wearing underwear? Can your child understand and follow basic directions? Does your child tell you through words, facial expressions or posture when he or she needs to go? Does your child stay dry for periods of two hours or longer during the day? Does your child complain about wet or dirty diapers? Can your child pull down his or her pants and pull them up again? Can your child sit on and rise from a potty chair? Steps to prepare for potty training: Take your child into the bathroom with you. Talk about the advantages of being trained: no more diaper rash, no more interruptions for diaper changing, and the pleasure of being clean and dry. Discuss training as an important stage of growing up. Let your child practice lowering and raising training pants sometimes, or putting them on and taking them off. Have a potty chair in the bathroom and the child might sit on it even with clothes on, while you are in the bathroom yourself, but only if he or she wants to. Don’t scare him or her to sit on the potty just have the equipment in sight so they...

...Theatre 110 Brad Reissig 11/11/10 Response paper of Urinetown I really enjoyed watching the Urinetown. The story was very unique and the characters were unique too. It began with an Officer Lockstock and Little Sally. I felt that Officer Lockstock is kind of narrator in this show. He said some kind of background of the place and also felt friendly and welcome to audience. As the result of a terrible water shortage, there are no more private toilets and all restroom activities are handled through a private corporation, the Urine Good Company. To control water consumption, people have to pay to use public toilets. It is illegal to pee in public area but some people don’t have money to use toilet, and if they try to pee, get caught by one of the officer, they are under arrest. Just this story, made me think of The Water War in Bolivia. The reason what cause of the conflicts is because the privatization of the public service of drinking water in Cochabamba and the authorization to raise tariffs. It was modified substantially the law of drinking water and sanitary sewer so even using rain was also illegal to people. Just like Urinetown, it is similar problem but made not too serious like water problem but pee. It was very new and unique to me. I can easily define the characters’ job just by looking at their clothes. Most of people were wearing dirty and shabby clothes. Rich people were wearing shiny and colorful suit with dress shoes. They also talk...

...concerns the issues faced in an U.S. company with a large percentage of immigrant Latino workers and the resulting interaction with their original Anglo workforce. There are numerous cultural misunderstandings in this case study between Anglo and Latino workforce. The Human Resource Department is unclear how to address the issues facing in the company. The restroom One of the cultural challenges that company is facing is soiled toilet paper scattered or piled all over the plant’s bathroom floors. In Mexico and other Latin American countries, the sewer or wastes pipes leading from the building are usually small in diameter compared with U.S. standards. In addition, the water pressure or volume generated is also less and toilets are much more prone to clogging. Individuals are taught at an early age to dispose their used toilet tissue into the basket provided. It is very much possible that restrooms at the company sites do not provide waster basket for used toilet tissues disposal. Or there is no sign in the restroom to let Latino workers know that their toilets have plenty of horsepower to flush away anything. Banking The Mexican banking system is much different than most Anglo Americans are used to. Mexicans distrust banking system due to history of corruption in Mexico. Many of them choose to keep their money in their house. Furthermore, many Mexican immigrants, in fact, immigrants in the U.S. are illegal immigrants or immigrants who lack traditional documents such as a driver’s...

The flora of the grove consists mainly of pine trees and some agricultural fields (vineyards). As far as, the fauna is concerned many bird species are bread, along with some small mammals (such as rabbits). The grove of Syggrou, as it is known, except of providing seminars and training on several agricultural factors, is also a meeting point for young people and families that want to take a walk, cycle, exercise or even have a picnic in nature. The whole area is filled with small paths making it easy for visitors to move around and explore the grounds. It provides the opportunity to escape from daily routine instantly, as you do not have to drive for hours to reach the countryside. Many inhabitants of the general area have become vigilant for the protection of the forest and pass this passion to their children. Syggrou grove has become an active part of everyday living; this is why the organization called “Friends of the Forest” was founded, arranging artistic activities (such as open field theatrical events and small...

...Salvatore D’Angelo Throughout the previous chapters Briggs discusses deviant behavior and how pertains to the normal behavior of children. She uses examples through empathy, ownership of feelings, and potty training. I think that she is certainly being realistic and not making excuses for the behavior. Just like every one else, children have real feelings and emotions that need to be understood and taken seriously. If a child’s emotions and feelings fail to be acknowledged then they will feel as though their feelings don’t count and are not important. The first example Briggs uses pertains to having a child own his or her feelings. She explains a situation where child wants a candy bar and the parent feels it will ruin their lunch. The child makes a seen when the parent says no, by hitting his brother. The mother scolds him and tells to say sorry to his brother. Briggs states that the mother could have avoided this situation by telling the child that he has a right to his feelings even if they differ from hers but he will have to wait until after lunch. I feel as though this is the right tactic for this situation because it helps the child realize that his feelings are being acknowledged and taken seriously with out giving into the child’s demands. They second example Briggs uses pertains to using empathy when dealing with a child’s deviant behavior. She states that if you try to relate to a child’s feelings instead of immediately rejecting them, you will...

...Potty Training Potty training a child can be a challenge for any parent. There is no one way that guarantees successful outcomes. There are many different ways this can be accomplished. The trick is to find the method that works best for you and your child. Thus, this paper will aim to recognize the signs that your child is ready to begin this process, various equipment needed, helpful tips for success, and common problems related to this overall process. When to start potty training is different for each child. The age can be as early as ten months to up to thirty-two months old. Girls are usually ready to start around two years old, whereas boys may not be ready until three or even four years old. Signs that your child is ready to begin potty training is when your child tells you when they have to pee or poop, or takes off his/her diaper after peeing or pooping. Following you into the bathroom and flushing the toilet shows that your child is interested in the potty process. Putting on underwear or asking to put on big girl or big boy, or uses words, facial expressions, or they may go into a corner and squat or grunt when they are about to poop are also good indicators that your child is ready to begin potty training.
