Question

A 24-month-old toddler starts to show readiness for toilet training; it is important for the parent to be aware of this and be ready to start the process.At 18 months of age,a child needs consistent but gentle discipline because the child cannot yet understand firmness and structure with discipline.Development of fears and need for security items usually occurs at the end of the 18- to 24-month stage.A 36-month-old child does not yet understand time and proximity of events,so the parent needs to understand that the toddler cannot "hurry up or we will be late."
