What is the Best Way to Toilet Train a Boy?

If you have a son, you have likely heard that toilet training boys may take longer than it does for girls, or that they might need to start later. And while it does take longer statistically, this should by no means discourage you from beginning the process of potty training as soon as possible.

The reality is, many boys are toilet trained by their mothers. According to some experts, this lack of a same-sex role model could be a contributing factor to boys' overall delay in becoming potty trained. And since potty training is essentially just a matter of imitation, it would only make sense that given this scenario, girls would train at a faster rate than boys.

At the same time, when you toilet train boys, you have the added responsibility of teaching them to use the potty in two ways: sitting on it and standing over it. This could also lead to some delay, as boys learn to master these two very different techniques. Thankfully, there are many potty training tips designed especially to help your child overcome these obstacles.

The most important message of all is that you don't have to wait to potty train your boy. With the right technique, he will be using the potty in no time!
