My little four year old, oh I’m sorry – five year old, has lots of trouble getting to the potty on time when he is really excited. I think it will be better if you just stay in a diaper today. Mommy will worry about keeping you dry and clean today, and you just worry about having fun.”
Franky had heard this before. He hadn’t heard it since he was in preschool, but it meant Mommy would keep him in diapers all day no matter what. He could use the potty if he wanted to, but only with Mommy or Daddy’s help (he wasn’t allowed to take the diaper off himself). It was okay to have wet diapers.
