medcom.id, Jakarta: Potty training is a training for a young child to use the toilet without help. When is the right time to teach it to children?
"It is best when a child is 3-year old," said Badriul Hegar, a Gastrohepatology consultant, during public discussion in Jakarta, recently.
He added that Chidren need around 1-6 months to be able to use the toilet.
Badriul advised potty training must be conducted in less than 10 minutes because children have short attention span. It also must be conducted after dining or bathing to familiarize children.
Separately, Pratiwi, a pediatrician, said potty training could also be used to make children comfortable without diaper.
"During the training, a child should be accustomed to be without diaper for at least 24 hours," she said.
