How can I get my son to ask for the potty?

my son will not ask for the potty unless it is bedtime how do you handle that

Answer #1

I rewarded my sons with Hot Wheels cars when they asked and went to the potty. I read books, watched It’s Potty Time a million times (drink a couple glasses of wine and watch with adults for some great entertainment); nothing was working. Finally went to bribery and it worked like a charm both times. We would go right to the local drug store and pick out a car. This practice obviously drifted away in a couple of weeks after it became “second nature”.

Answer #2

We usually prompt our kids to go to the bathroom, eg, before we go out so that we don’t need to find one, etc.

Try doing that & see if they don’t get in the habit on their own.
