Don't let this sweet face fool you!
I need some advice. I have a 3 year old who thinks she is a dog who goes potty outside. She has peed several times and pooped three times! Today I walked outside just in time to see her coming out of a squat and pulling her dress back down. The other two times it was close to our house so not very many people could have seen. Today she took care of business at the front of our lawn near the street so anyone could have seen! I was MORTIFIED!! I would blame this on Cody our dog but she started doing it before he came to live with us. I do not know what to do to get her to stop. Today she got a spanking and I made her clean up the mess. The only thing I can think of is not allowing her outside but that would be more of a punishment to me! Any advice? This is yet one more reason why she could be our last! LOL

Good Luck with that!!!!
Tell her if she acts like that she can live in the zoo with the animals. Pretend to call and everything! I don't really know! What a stinker. I was really hoping for shot with her in action! Tee! Hee! By the way I tagged you so check out my blog!
Is that sweater from Target? If so I think I have the same one! :)
My advice, because we all know I'm full of it (advice that is) I would tell her that if she wants to be a dog, then that's what she gets to eat. I dare you at dinner to put a plate of dog food in front of her and make sure everyone else is on board with you and tell her she has to eat it. If she's going to poop like a dog, she's going to eat like a dog. I give her 1 minute till she gives in. You could also set up a bed in the corner with just her blanket and tell her that's where she gets to sleep.
I'm so nice huh?
Melissa,
I remember when Sydney was trying to "poop" train, I heard that if they continue to poop where they're not supposed too, to put them in the shower and turn on freezing cold water and tell them that if they keep doing that, this will happen to them everytime.
Well, needless to say, I did do that, and I will never forget the mortified look on my little girls face!!! I will never forget how horrible I felt and how she looked at me like "I thought you loved me?"
So, my point is, whatever you decide to do, don't do anything that you think will make Care Bear distrust you. I know how frustrating it can be. Pray about it and you'll know what to do.
All the your kids are sooo big now. It is fun to see La La getting on the bus. If she is like the twins, she loves the bus!!
Good luck!
Ugh, I'm sorry I have nothing to offer you for help but I will call you if MG does this too so I can find out what you did to solve it. Yikes!
