I only want to answer the potty training question

I think they should be able to use the toilet as soon as they can walk. I'm serious, there is no reason a child cannot use the toilet when they learn to walk.


i couldn't agree more.


Really? Then what will you do if you have a child that is not developmentally ready until age 4? What will you do if you have a child who is permanently incontinent?

This whole thread is well-crafted around the idea of parents preparing to gracefully accept whatever child they happen to have. And yet this potty training thing jumps out as a glaring exception to that. If a person is prepared to accept a child no matter what, why are differences in potty training ability an exception to that acceptance?


What does that mean?


It means that not all children are able to contain themselves, at 18 months old.

1. would you cry if you child was ever diagnosed with HFA/AS why would you cry, or why wouldn't you not? Diagnosed with Asperger's or HFA? No.

2. how would you handle people other people biased tours your child? I do not know what this question is asking of me.

3. medication? Depends on the symptoms.

4. early intervention do you believe your child would stop learning at the age of five unless they get this ( you be surprise how many people thank this) Depends on the symptoms.

5. your opinion on mental age? (my opinion B.S based on what doctors said about me) Meh.

6. how old are you going to wait into potty training? Toddlerhood...

7. are you going to believe every single thing a doctor say about your child development even though you see them do things in front of you that they don't do with others? No.

8. Are you going to treat your child like he or she has a handicap Yeah, because they do. If they have HFA/AS, I could treat them normally a lot of the time, but they'd still have difficulties I'd need to help them with.

9. ask your own question? No.

1. would you cry if you child was ever diagnosed with ____________ why would you cry, or why wouldn't you not? If the child had cancer I would bawl my eyes out. I would roll my eyes if the child was diagnosed with Aspergers and i would say here we go again. As now my child would have to deal with the same garbage I did. :cry:

2. how would you handle people other people biased towards your child? If they made my kid cry then I probably be spending the night in jail.

3. medication? If it slows the kid down or makes the child sleepy then no way. If it makes the child act normally and reduces that childs suffering and anxiety then hell yes. I would work two jobs to afford the medicine if I had to.

4. early intervention do you believe your child would stop learning at the age of five unless they get this ( you be surprise how many people thank this) If an expert told me this I would do whatever it took to help my child.

5. your opinion on mental age? ( my opinion B.S based on what doctors said about me) I never heard of this before. You have to go by how your child acts towards its peers I would guess.

6. how old are you going to wait into potty training? It depends on the child some sooner than others.

7. are you going to believe every single thing a doctor say about your child development even though you see them do things in front of you that they don't do with others? If my parents would have then I would been a zombie staggering around on riddlin.

8. Are you going to treat your child like he or she has a handicap That only makes weakness and laziness

9. ask your own question? What is yout take on mental age?

I don't plan on having children, so these are purely academic.

1. would you cry if you child was ever diagnosed with ____________ why would you cry, or why wouldn't you not?

I might feel sad, but only because I knew the child would have difficulties.

2. how would you handle people other people biased tours your child?

I would very bluntly set them straight.

3. medication?

Last resort. Many medications have not been properly tested with children.

4. early intervention do you believe your child would stop learning at the age of five unless they get this ( you be surprise how many people thank this)

No, but it has been proven to help.

5. your opinion on mental age? ( my opinion B.S based on what doctors said about me)

Valid, but the concept is too easily abused to treat people as lesser beings.

6. how old are you going to wait into potty training?

Doesn't it make sense to start it as soon as the child is capable?

7. are you going to believe every single thing a doctor say about your child development even though you see them do things in front of you that they don't do with others?

Of course not; I'm not stupid.

8. Are you going to treat your child like he or she has a handicap

If a child is disabled, it is wrong to except them to be able to be normal.

9. ask your own question?

People overwhelm me, and I doubt my own ability to support myself. Is it reasonable of people to expect me to have children?

Banhammered, apparently.
