Which Gender is harder to toilet train? ?

Question

Boys or Girls?

Answer 1

im trying to potty train my son and its very hard. i think girls are easier. plus, with boys you have to teach them to pee sitting down at first and then teach them how to do it standing up.

Answer 2

Boys:

have to train them to pee standing

*this requires lots of teaching on just correct technique of aiming there little p***s so they don't hit every thing in the room except the water in front of them...

(you can start them sitting to pee, but they should learn there special ability)

best method for this is to put something in the bowl for him to aim at... or if you have the special toilet that has blue liquid... he will be excited to see himself magically changing it green as his yellow urine mixes w/ it...

and to train them to p**p sitting

Answer 3

i've always heard boys are harder... you'd think girls though, but we are smarter.. haha i don't know.

Answer 4

The boys in our family were impossible to train! One was deathly afraid he would fall in the toilet or something. We made up a "pee pee song" and everything - which he LOVED to sing - but still would not use the toilet. It got to be such a bad habit that he ended up with a bladder infection for holding it so long and so often (seriously... the only way you could get him to go was in a diaper or to put him in warm water so he had no control over going). Absoultely HORRIBLE!

The girls... it was like they couldn't wait or something. They'd rather be on the potty a couple of minutes, than be in soiled panties for who knows how long until someone realized they went.  

Answer 5

boys. we had a devil of a time potty training my nephew. (he lived with us) In a house full of girls we were not sure if we should teach him how to go while standing or sitting. we ended up asking the neighbor to help and he told us to have him sit and hold his little guy down and pee. he also talked to austin about standing up to pee when he is older.

it was wierd because we had only had girls in the house and were not sure how to go about it. girls you can just sit them there and they go.

but every child is different. my oldest neice got it right away and was sleeping through the night dry after a week. the second oldest took almost a year.

good luck to potty trainers. i dont have to worry about that for a year or two.

Answer 6

Definitely boys.  

Answer 7

boys

Answer 8

In my experience boys are harder sometimes......... girls tend to be more aware of their bodies sooner than boys therefore they catch on quicker. However it all depends on the individual child.  

Answer 9

We have a 9 yr old girl & a 4 year old boy. The boy was a bit tougher. He still can't aim but that will be the case until his wife straightens him out. I'm done with it!

Answer 10

well.. with girls i think its easier as with boys you need to help them to get it in the toilet and sit down ?

Answer 11

If you're trying to force potty training they both are.  If you wait until the child is ready neither one is.  My aunt has four children, two boys and two girls.  Her oldest daughter wasn't potty trained until she was four, he youngest son was potty trained right after his 2nd birthday.  Each child is different
