  • we’re on day one with my 23 month old, so i don’t have any sage wisdom about it really. but i’ll go over what we’re doing, since it’s not a disaster (yet)

    • we prepared well in advance, read the book twice (oh crap potty training)
    • it’s a stern, cold turkey, end to diapers. we explained what we’re doing in plain language and did our best to speak with confidence and directness and emphasize that we’re here to help. we’re doing night training at the same time as day training in hopes it will not show weakness in our approach
    • we bought a mini pot for each floor of the house so there’s always one sorta nearby + a seat for the big toilet (he hasn’t used it yet but he knows what it’s for). introduce the kid to it early if you want but make sure they know it isn’t a toy, it’s only for serious business
    • i think it’s important to not wait to long, the book said 30 months(?) was too long - they’ll start to have discovered power manipulation at that age i guess, and make it difficult. at my kid’s age he’s still really eager to impress us and not play games about it too much







  • started a play-through a few months back

    did year 1 very efficiently, almost got community center within a year (got it spring 1 of year 2)

    then the update came out for switch so i’ve been enjoying all the new content - haven’t been to endgame since 2019 so there was a lot i haven’t seen

    i’m on year 4 now, working on perfection. i have almost all the requirements, just need another 4 million to buy the clock
