Potty Training

CC is trying to potty train Declan over the weekend. Apparently, he read a book that said you can achieve success in three days with constant vigilance. They decided to let Declan run around naked, so he’d be more consciously aware that he needed to go to the bathroom. I guess the idea is that when you see them start to pee, you grab them and rush to the toilet, so they learn where to go. Of course, I’m imagining Declan weeing a stream across the room as CC runs with him toward the bathroom.

I’m reminded of that scene from Bruce Almighty, where the dog is constantly peeing on the couch, and Bruce grabs him and rushes outside with the dog peeing the entire time. As soon as he gets to the grass outside, the dog stops. I can see Declan doing the same thing. Peeing until he gets to the toilet, then stopping. I can also see CC putting plastic wrap all over his apartment to keep it dry. Looking like something out of a scene from Dexter. Ought to be a fun three days.
