My 18mo. old girl has decided on her own that she is ready to try the potty, she is asking to go potty and she will go. My three year old boy is a different story he wants to wear the underwear, but not use the potty he will pee pee outside though. My 5 year old boy was easy except for #2 that took awhile and a bribe to Chuck E. Cheese. My 3 year old doesn't understand the bribes what do I do? I am getting frustrated with 2 trying to potty train at the same time?

That sound tough! I have heard that once they're past 2 years old it seems to be harder. Mine were 21 months (boy) and 19.5 months (girl) when they were fully trained...but I wasn't doing it at the same time! My advice would probably still be the same though, with 2 to take a weekend or 3 or 4 days, if necessary, and devote it to getting the job done. I made a big production of putting the diapers away (since they were cloth), and we never looked back, even with accidents. I personally think that using diapers at night, using pull-ups and using diapers when you go out confuses the child and makes it harder. That's just my opinion and what worked for us though! Every child is different.
Whatever you decide, good luck!
