Need help...My daughter will be 2 in March..she will go to the potty sometimes when we put her on the potty, but sometimes when she does go potty i think she gets really shy...and she just starts to panic...she will start crying and just want off?!! Is there anything that i can do to help her...we praise her when she does go potty...i do everything that i can think of...maybe she's not ready or something?? Help, please!

i treated my daughter to three mini marshmellows everytime she went potty. then when she mastered peeing on the potty i gave them for pooping, when she mastered that i gave them to her when she went all by herself with out reminders. she is still young to so its going to take quite awhile. good luck! :)

My youngest daughter who is now 4 was the same way. It took my a little longer than my first to potty train her, but we let her walk around the house without a diaper and had her potty in the bathroom and one in the living room. She had to get use to it so we got her one that made the flushing sounds, she liked that because it was more realistic and the transition from her potty to the regular toilet was not hard. Just wait..Sometimes she will want to go and other times she is just doing it for show. Always talk to her and tell her that being a big girl...blah..blah..blah...it works

If she has a potty chair put next to the toilet when you go potty bring her with you and sit her down on hers so that way if she sees you go it may help her to go and know what to do but do it every time it may take time but she will get it soon I have two girls it worked for them hope it works for you.
