Alex has been resistant to using the toilet. We have leisurely tried and attempted food rewards. But, it didn't work. He just kept going in the diaper and having a tantrum when it was time to use to potty. We took a break from it for awhile. Then yesterday Luke and I got some prizes and made a sticker chart while Alex was at school. This morning Alex had to face the fact that when we are home we wear underwear. No exceptions, no matter how many times the question is rephrased or how many tantrums you throw. We had a successful first day with five successes and two accidents.
Alex's first prize after five successes. Then he began to earn new cars for his track. A bit later he can get another track. Later in the day he attempted to trade his new cars and track for his diapers back on. It didn't work.
His sticker chart. Alex loves Thomas now. He seems to enjoy filling up the track more than the prizes. He keeps saying he is going to fill up the whole track. Good idea! The blue dots are for when he gets to pick a new car.
