Barring some sort of disability he should be able to learn he can go to mom or dad and say, "diaper dirty." Allowing him to get up to use the toilet if it occurs to him to do so before spoiling his diaper in the first place is also a good plan. Would you want some one to force you to lay in your own mess? | |

But with our son he had no interest in potty training at the time, he just started taking his diaper off if he got stinky while in the crib, which is what I thought Yedida was asking about. Duck Tape is not an alternative to potty training or changing diapers. It just contains the mess, same as a diaper. You wouldn't suggest putting your child to bed without a diaper on before they were potty trained would you? | |

Ernie is absolutely right but particularly, he is probably saying not only that he is dirty but that perhaps it is time to toilet train. | |

The thing is it is better to have them in a soiled diaper then to have them remove the diaper and cover their body with poop. Either way they will be in poop for how ever much time it takes you to notice they need changed. The duck tape just keeps the poop and diaper in a smaller area. | |
