My experience has been similar to Reanna's.
My third child is three and just about 98% trained now.
I treat 'em with respect and love.
I let her know starting last year that it was coming, and started to use stickers, etc. almost immedietly. All of this reinforced my message, but she didn't get trained 'till she was good and ready!
A big part was her seeing her friends trained. At this age, they start to realize that they are seperate from you.
Anyone else see this?
My princess, referenced above, also just decided that she didn't need me in her room any more to fall asleep. I can tuck her in, and then she tells me I can go now! (My baby is growing up)...
