R.L.
Both my kids were around 2 1/2 when they were potty trained. I knew they were ready b/c they were able to tell me when they had already gone, were able to pull down there pants, and such. They both would use the potty ever once in a while but not everytime. So the thing that worked for me was too be brave, pack an extra change of clothes and towel, and take them out somewhere in their underwear (not pullups). I took them out to for a meal and would constantly ask them if they had to go. When we went they could pick out the stall, flush them selves like a big kid. Luckily they both did well w/ this and I never had an accident. And after that I would just keep it up.
