Your friend is frustrated because she has tried to toilet train her 24-month-old son for the past week but progress is slow and taking longer than she would like. Which of the following statements is a proper response to your friend?

a. "I'm surprised he's not potty trained yet. You might want to see a pediatrician."
b. "Be patient, it is not going to happen overnight. Some children take months or even years to become potty trained."
c. "Most toddlers learn how to use the potty in two weeks, so you're almost there."
d. "You really shouldn't toilet train until the child stays dry throughout the night. So I don't think he's ready just yet."

B. Typically, toilet training is a process that continues over several weeks, months, or even years. Also, the earlier toilet training begins, the longer it takes to complete it.
