This video was a great overview of the toilet training process. Perfect for busy parents. Dr. Hertzberg outlines the steps of the process in a concise, intelligent way. She discusses readiness (child's readiness, as well as the parent's emotional preparation for the process!), staying motivated, positive encouragement with emphasis on self-esteem, how to best reward successes and why a child may experience regression. I particularly liked her viewpoint on hygiene. This video is great information for parents. But the bonus I found while I watched is my 23 month old son watched it with me, with great interest! The whole video! I think he liked seeing other children in action. I use this video to keep us both on task.

When my cousin related how he and his wife were not succeeding at toilet training their son, I had heard another friend of mine talk about how easy it was using some tape his wife had purchased. I found out the tape was called "Let's Go Potty", and sent a copy to my cousin.

Both he and his wife have still not stopped thanking me for that tape. While it is not 'instant magic', it did provide a 'live action' pediatrician's INFORMATION and EXAMPLES to move their son into dry toilet training undies quicker than they expected.

My cousins said that Dr. Betti Hertzberg did a great job of making the presentation to them, and say "THANKS Dr. Betti".

I thought from some of the other reviews that my son would enjoy watching this and learn more about using the potty from other kids. He just turned two and we are just starting to explore potty training. This is a very, very basic instructional video aimed at parents who don't have a clue as to where to begin. Additionally I thought "Dr. Betty's" approach to potty training was so low key that parents using this method might find themselves with a 1st grader still wearing pull up diapers. This video is getting tossed in the yard sale box.

When I ordered this video, I based my decision on the ratings it had received. I was very excited when I finally received it and sat down as soon as I got home to watch it. I watched the entire video and at the end was very disappointed with the content. I was so hoping to get some new insight on potty training my son. But this video showed me absolutely nothing I didn't already know and hadn't already tried. I'm sure this video would be great for those parents who don't have the first ounce of common sense.
