Review
A good book to read if you are about to start a potty training programme and full of tips and ideas if you feel you have tried everything and failed. -- Cerebra Newsbeat Each step has a wealth of ideas and tips; with some having case studies showing examples of the step in action. I found these steps really easy to follow, and useful in giving me ideas on how to individualise the programme for my child. The final chapters give a brief summary for each step, some invaluable tips and answer frequently asked questions, all of which help to provide a really useful book... I feel this book is an invaluable aid to interested professionals working with children with special needs. As a tool, many of the resources can be made and easily individualised for families to enable them to have a positive and successful experience of toilet training. -- GAP (Good Autism Practice) What sets this book apart from other toilet training books is that Ms. Batts explains why potty training efforts tend to fail. Her clear behavioral plan and experienced insights will help countless children finally succeed at this essential skill. -- Bonnie Arnwine, Founder, National Autism Resources Brenda does an excellent job of connecting with her audiences and in providing workable solutions to issues faced by parents and those who provide services to individuals affected by an autism spectrum disorder. Her approaches get results. People who have attended the workshops Brenda has offered for Region 17 Education Service Center have commented on getting results using her approaches. Her workshops continue to be talked about and remembered long after they are over. -- Dr. David Jenkins, Educational Service Center, Lubbock, Texas, USA This is a book I REALLY wish I had around when I was potty training my son Aiden. Ready, Set, Potty! is filled with fabulous ideas and I am actually going to use some with my daughter Olivia. She is developmentally "normal" but utterly oppsed to the idea of using the potty so I am sure the ideas in this book will help. If you are the parent of a special needs kid be sure to get this book - I am CERTAIN it will be a great help in your quest to toilet train that child!!! It is very easy to read and 100% practical. The ideas are doable for every family. I am happy to recommend Ready, Set, Potty! -- Tara's View on Books I was mesmerized by Brenda's system. It made so much sense to me, and I was eager to get my Bella out of diapers. I followed Brenda's instructions to the letter and sure enough, after 48 hours, Bella had released into the toilet several times and was on her way to success. Previous attempts meant literally hours sitting on the toilet with no success, only to have a puddle on the floor seconds after leaving the bathroom. Go ahead, Pamper yourself. Get the book. -- Age of Autism Behavioral consultant Brenda Batts has written the instructions parents need to successfully guide a child along the path toward bathroom independence. "... it is imperative to understand that our children are more like us than they are different," she says. Using this premise as the foundation, Batts shows how to create a simple, intelligent, logical process that a child will not find difficult to follow. Many of her techniques may also be used in other areas of life that need logic and clarification... Batts is terrific at presenting instructional material in a clear, easy-to-follow manner. She has structured her book in a way that allows for easy cover-to-cover reading but which also lends itself to later reference... Also evident in the text is Batt's utmost respect for her readers and their children; it shows in her treatment of the subjects in her examples. As the mother of a child with developmental disorders, she knows exactly what it's like to struggle with challenges like potty training, and offers warm understanding in addition to useful advice... Care givers who need a useful, creative, and structured potty training program will do well to start with Ready, Set, Potty. -- ForeWord Reviews In her helpful new book, Ready, Set, Potty: Toilet Training for Children with Autism and Other Developmental Disorders [September 2010, Jessica Kingsley Publishers] Brenda Batts provides an easily accessible, informative guide complete with charts and tips for parents and teachers geared towards achieving successful, independent toilet training for the disabled child. -- Cindi Matthews - frugalnewenglandkitchen.com

Should be included in your reading
By la plume d'une femme
If you're trying to potty train an individual with developmental delays - in my case, a grandson with autism - read absolutely every book on the subject that you can, including this one. If you've been at it a while, you know as I do that it will be years before you can say, well that's over with. There will be setbacks aplenty during the course of the training. You need to arm yourself with every trick in existence. We have had many reversals in our journey toward independent pottying that were mostly the result of upheavals in routine (dad got a job that took him out of state for weeks at a time, mom got a job, and grandma took over a lot of care giving, went to a new school, etc.) Each time it was like starting all over again.
Ready, Set, Potty! has a lot of good things to try when you first set up your procedures. Suggestions for enticements: music, a favorite cartoon character, DVDs, reward tracking and gold stars - it's all good. And it will probably be necessary to go from one favorite thing to another as the training progresses, so it's nice to have a list of options to refer to. One I hadn't used that the author mentions is decorating the child's underwear as a reward. Some will work with your individual, some won't, of course.
There were two things about this otherwise good book on the subject of potty training that made me grind my teeth: One was that the author said on more than one occasion, "And 36 hours later...Success!" As though there is ever a case where a special needs child just suddenly "gets it" and that's that. Even the title suggests that this will all be over in a quick 1-2-3. You may have your first positive experiences relatively early in the training, but it ain't over til it's over, and that could be three years later.
The other thing I had to take issue with was the way the author persisted in generalizing. "If your child does this it's because of blahblah." For example ** warning to the weak of stomach, stop right here ** she says if your child engages in feces smearing he/she does so in order to hide the feces. No, no, and no. A child will usually spread his/her feces over the walls, furniture, face, arms, legs because he/she is stimulated by the smell, feel and sometimes the taste of the feces. Temple Grandin did this and commented she, too, did it for this reason. I was disappointed that the author was so emphatic (and emphatically wrong) about some of these issues.
So, yes, read the book. You will pick up on what's not going to work soon enough. And you may glean enough information valid to your child's situation to make it worthwhile. Just don't worry if you don't experience the miracles the author suggests you will.

Well-written and presented, great ideas. Can't wait to try it.
By Joshua Senecal
My wife and I have a 4-year-old daughter on the Autism Spectrum. She is also developmentally delayed. Like many (most) kids with her condition, getting her potty trained has been something of a chore, to say the least. This book caught my eye, and I figured "Why not?". Although we've yet to try it out (just finished the book) this may be the ticket.
I think the book is very well written. Ideas are presented plainly, and in an easy-to-understand fashion. The author apparently has a lot of experience in helping special needs children get potty trained, so she's had a lot of experience explaining what needs to be done to a lot of parents, and it shows. She presents the various steps that need to be undertaken and explains why they need to be done, along with the various considerations. Each section also has several case studies, allowing the reader to see how the ideas presented in that section were used/adapted for children in different circumstances.
If I could think of one downside to the book it would be that it is unable to provide guidance should a person's circumstance be different from those described and addressed in the book. This isn't the author's fault, of course. It's just the nature of things: a book can't always address the special circumstances of every person. However, I think there's enough presented here that a parent can get something together that should work in many, if not most, cases. I suspect some creativity, and even trial-and-error, will be needed.
The author suggests a lot of things I hadn't thought of before, such as decorating the bathroom. Seems obvious, now that I think about it. Our daughter *loves* our Nintendo Wii (it's about the only thing she really loves), so some Nintendo decor may be coming our way soon!
Having finally finished the book I'm now ready to have my wife look it over, and then we'll give it a go. I'll try and report back as to how successful the potty training went. I'm optimistic.

Don't give up before reading this book
By Karl Bielefeldt
When you think about challenges parents of special needs children face, potty training is not one of the first things that comes to mind, but it is one of the most significant. "Ready, Set, Potty!" addresses those unique challenges by presenting a system that draws on characteristics common to all children.
I started reading this book with an unhealthy dose of skepticism, spending most of the first two chapters rolling my eyes at what seemed to be an unwarranted degree of optimism. In order to cope, parents of special needs children have to come to accept that there are certain things your child will probably never be able to do, and I had begun to think potty training was one of those things for my daughter.
A few more chapters in, that skepticism was replaced with hope, and by the end, the hope was replaced with enthusiasm. This is not a one size fits all approach to potty training. The author explains the reasons underlying every step, in clear enough detail that any parent can see how to make it work for their own child, often presenting it in a way that makes it easy to relate as an adult. For example, did you ever think about why every home bathroom seems to have a stack of magazines, and what might be your child's equivalent? The book is full of case studies of ways the plan has been customized for individual children. Most of those children had challenges equal to or greater than those my daughter faces.
I'm not able to report on the results yet, as the program requires extensive planning, customization, and preparation, and recommends carefully choosing the date you begin. However, a plan is fully in the works and I will update this review when the time comes.
This book teaches general principles for teaching any child any skill, and I found myself thinking of ways to apply those principles to instilling dinnertime expectations in our neuro-typical 3 year-old, whose eating habits have been a challenge for us lately.
The one area I would like to have seen receive more attention is with physical disabilities. For example, my daughter can balance on the toilet just fine, but is physically unable to get herself on it. However, the general principles taught made it easy to see that this could be accomodated by adding a step of asking someone for help to her potty "story."
In summary, a very informative book. I am very much looking forward to the results.
