SUBJECT: stressed about toilet training a 3 year old
My 3 year old daughter WILL NOT use the potty. I've tried so many tricks, I'm starting to think it will never happen. Now I feel panicked because she was born in December and is supposed to start JK, but can't if she is still in diapers.

I've tried alarm clocks, sticker charts, reward of new panties, I must have every potty book, I stopped using the change table, I let her come into the bathroom with me, etc, etc, etc.

She just doesn't have any interest and tells me she wants to stay in diapers. She will not wear pull-ups. Sometimes she will sit on it, but has never done anything and won't either.

I believe she has control and is ready, but I don't know what to do to motivate her.

Any suggestions or similiar experiences or even just some support would really help me de-stress a little bit.
