Have they ever tried getting her to wear underwear? A kid is only as lazy as you allow them to be. I have 3 girls. Soon to be 6, just turned 4 and almost 18mos. My 4 year old only wears pullups at night but recently she has been doing good about not having accidents. She is excited about going to Pre-K in the fall. When we were potty training her we repeatedly told her that if she wasn't going on the potty by herself that she wouldn't be able to go to school with the other kids when it came time for pre-k. That the other kids that were her age would be going on the potty by themselves. I should also add that my kids have never been in daycare. There were times where she would have accidents in her underwear but eventually she got used to it. She did good for a few weeks without accidents then she started having accidents in bed. So it's been that way for awhile, but like I said she has been doing good about bedtime accidents recently. Every child is different. Maybe if you talked to her about the benefits of going on the potty on her own. That having a peepee diaper on is no fun and it takes time out of things she could be doing. Could try just taking her to the bathroom in the morning, then about 30 mins after meals or drinks and right before bed. Getting a routine going. Just some suggestions. Hope you figure something out.
Has your boyfriend asked you to potty-train his daughter? I don't think being "constantly on her" is going to work. Maybe get a good book on potty training and read the sections on what to do when the original approach is not working. If the girl is in preschool, her teachers there might be able to work with her and get some results.
