Don’t panic when you see a puddle under or near your “toilet-training” child. Instead, point out to her, express your regret, change his clothes quickly, help him clean the pool, and put the wet things in the washing machine. Your child can and should help with the cleanup, but try not to turn the experience into a feeling of guilt. Yelling and long arguments won’t help.
Forgive: they forget sometimes
Children can’t really say why accidents happen, so don’t pressure your child to explain the reasons. One common cause of accidents is sheer omission: Children of this age can be so preoccupied with an activity that they lose sight of the signals from their bladder.
Help them deal with the problem
They may also be under stress from a major change such as a new day in day care or a baby at home. Young children lack insight into their own behavior, but they need to know how to deal with a problem when it occurs. This is why encouraging your toddler to clean up the scene of the accident is so important.
