SUBJECT: My 3rd old Son will not train! HELP!
I have 2 sons. One is 8 and has spina bifida. He is in a wheelchair and is still in diapers because of his special needs. His younger brother is 3 and has no special needs physically. Everytime my husband and I try to potty train him, he refuses, saying that he wants to be just like his big brother Evan. I have tried explaning to him that he is his own person and he can do things that his older brother cannot do. He just cannot seem to comprehend this situation and I do not know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas for me or has been in a similar situation before? Thank you so much.

Michele
