About this episode
There are lots of experts who claim to know when it’s time to potty train a child, but their advice is rarely based in science. Saabira Chaudhuri joins host Krys Boyd to discuss how big diaper companies push the idea that parents should wait for certain signs to train their child to use the toilet, how this can be devastating for the environment and how this issue affects the elderly as well. Her article “The Wait-Until-Ready Approach to Potty Training Is Under Fire” was published by Bloomberg.
