“Whether you’re just getting started potty training your child with Down syndrome or have been at it for months or years, Potty Time for Kids with Down Syndrome: Lose the Diapers, Not Your Patience offers the specialized guidance needed for you and your child to be successful!
“Drawing on their years of experience working with and toilet training children with Down syndrome, authors Terry Katz and Lina Patel have created a customizable developmental-behavioral model based on a thorough understanding of how the behaviors of children with Down syndrome are affected by their neurodevelopment. For instance, the low muscle tone common in children with Down syndrome can affect bladder and bowel control. Or a child may be motivated to continue using a diaper because he enjoys the interaction while being changed. The book’s empathetic and encouraging tone coupled with its positive behavior-based strategies geared specifically to children with Down syndrome will help parents avoid typical challenges.” -publisher
