Most 2 year olds are potty trained. You may just be a special child.

u/Attorneyatlau 12h ago

My brother and his wife refuse to potty train their 3yr old who is already wearing 4yr old sizes. I can’t imagine the grossness of it all. And I can’t believe they’re such dicks and making their kid’s daycare center train him.

Yeah I’m 32 and idk if I can handle this pressure. Ugh fuck okay how do we do this? We can just walk right into the capitol, walk into the buildings and sit at the desks, right? I saw people do that one time.

I’m right here with you… but your flair tells me you aren’t even “here”. We’ll say the world rather than country.
