Below are the 10 crazy reasons why you should delay your kid’s potty training.

1. Accidents become more like natural disasters. These aren’t cute little baby turds anymore. It’s like a Porta Potty has exploded in the Spidyman underoos and left zero survivors.

2. You can’t take a leak or a crap without a tiny person following you in there and asking if you’re doing a pee pee or a poopy and would you like a sticker or a cookie for that?

3. You become acquainted with every public restroom between your house and the grocery store.

4. Your child insists s/he doesn’t have to use the potty at the restaurant until the exact moment the food arrives at your table. For the next 10 years.

5. Your child announces loudly and without abandon that s/he has “to go POOPY!” at the most inopportune times — like in the middle of a church service or at a fancy party.

6. Going potty in public places becomes a boredom-relieving game for your kid, each round of which pushes you further toward becoming a homicidal maniac.

7. Your child continuously asks neighbors and acquaintances about their bowel activities despite repeated reminders that it’s not nice.

8. Flushing the toilet becomes so fascinating for your child that your water and sewer bill increases three-fold.

9. You have to leave a full cart of groceries at the front of the checkout line after an hour-and-a-half of shopping every third trip because junior is about to “peep in [his] pants” if you don’t take him to the toilet immediately.

10. There isn’t enough Spray ‘n Wash in the world to take care of the skid marks littering your kid’s laundry for the next half decade or so.

So it’s really not worth rushing into potty training. Take your sweet time. After all, you wouldn’t want to deal with numbers 1, 3, 5, and 7. But then again, you really wouldn’t want to deal with all the 10 crazy reasons, right?

Seriously, there’s no need to rush. There’s no need drive yourself nuts as well. The fact is that kids will learn how to potty, no matter what. It’s the one they will definitely learn, that is for sure. So take it easy. Spare yourself al the trouble.
