It is so funny you posted this. I was just telling my husband last week that if we could, I would send my 2.5 yo to "Potty training camp." I am so sick of talking up the benefits of pooping in a potty, I would gladly outsource the job.

As a mom, I'm all about making things easier and more convenient, but isn't there a point where we begin crossing a line? Although, on the flip-side, I do think there are situations where outsourcing may be better than what the child's parent is capable of providing? I guess this is one of those tricky situations.

P.S. If you are looking for another great parenting blog, check out www.eensies.com (you wont be sorry).
