Which would you choose for a 2 to 5 year old, pads or diapers?...(tampons are obviously out of the question, seeing as they are too small to use them).

I think I would choose diapers, until they reached about 6 years old. Diapers would stay on better, and wouldn't irritate the child so much. However, after 6...I think starting to use pads would be a good idea, because you don't want them wearing diapers for too long.

What do you think? Would you use pads, or diapers in this situation, and why?
