Don't let your son pee in the "forest"

I learned a very important lesson. Never let your child pee outside. Because if you do, it is something they want to do on a regular basis. In my desperate attempts to potty train Cole I allowed this to happen. Cole needed to go and there was no potty in sight. He had yet been successful in "holding" it so I took him to the forest. (Remember we live in a green place so it looks like a forest wherever we go) Now it is his favorite pasttime to tell me when he knows there is no potty. He specifically remembers at this particular park that he gets to pee outside if he has the need. Even worse is that he has also gone poop outside. Again, we had no toilet in sight so I did what I had to do. It is truly becoming a problem. In case you have not learned this important lesson I thought I would pass along my insights!
