What can you do if your son goes to the bathroom when told to but does not go on his own?

Answer

How old is he? If he's only about 2 years old, that would mean he's doing good and will probably catch on pretty soon.

Answer

OK, then he's a bit behind the curve, but still has time before kindergarden. What seems to be working for my grandson is a simple bribe. They bought a set of animal stamps and when he goes, he gets to have a lion or giraffe stamped on his arm or tummy.

Answer

Be patient. Keep telling him to go. He'll eventually do it on his own. He really will.
