Hello helpdude and I just ran across your post about the children and problems with training. First thank you for posting your post and second I was sadden by your comment that you were abused as a child and hope you are in a safe and better enviornment. I wanted to write to you because my step-son has been going through this since we got custody of him last year. When we got custody of him we found out through DYFS that he was abused as well but don't know the extent of how bad, all we know his mother hit him a lot. He has a lot of issues and it is very frustrating to deal with the potty training thing at the age of 6 almost 7. I wish you the best in life, be strong life gets better.
