There is no definite time when children need to be taught toilet training. But it is too early make toilet training can be dangerous because children aged less than three years generally have not had the ability to decide when to go to the toilet.
Hodges said, for children aged less than three years, holding the waste water will cause some problems such as bedwetting and forming capacity for the bladder. Parents need to pay attention to the signs when the little one is ready to accept the toilet training, among other things, he already has a good motor ability, is able to understand the term waste water, being able to tell a parent when about to relieve himself, and so on.

In order for the activities in the toilet a more pleasant for children, he said, parents can set up small toys in the toilet so that they are more interested and at home in the toilet to "affair back" done.
