I was out of diapers by my second birthday, which is earlier than average. I was very easy to potty-train. A few accidents happened still but not for long. I was dry at night too by age 4.

I was potty trained by age one year, according to my mother. I didn't like wet, stinky diapers and apparently had sufficient bladder control by that age to hold it until I was placed on the potty. I started walking at 9 months.

Girls are easier to potty train than boys as a general rule.

I was potty trained early. I think it is due to the sensory issue I have, where I cannot tolerate wet fabric on my skin.

My baby girl hung out for awhile in diapers. When she wouldn't pee in her bath water, l knew she was ready. l knew l had to coax her. Put some small Halloween M&M 's in those tiny little pkgs in the bathroom counter. It's amazing how quickly she was trained. One week. Then the candies disappeared from the bathroom.

I have no dang idea when I was potty trained lol, it was definitely before I was 5 though because like...I mean I wasn't going to kindergarten in pull ups.

Do still have a vague memory of wearing them when I was really young though lol.

I had my last accident in my childhood at age 5. Though I has a few accidents in high school but it was only at home and it was because I was dealing with side affects of a missed dose of my medication. Now I just deal with leakage issues and occasional bladder spasms from energy drinks. I also deal with possible OAB.

Oh yeah, I quit wearing diapers when I was 3 and wore training pants until around my 5th birthday.

I'm told I was toilet trained by the time I was about 2.5 yrs with occasional accidents after.

I'm not sure how to vote. Though potty trained "on time", I definitely had issues with dribbling a little.

I think that dripping and rarely accidents not count, this can happen as an adult too

Okay, I voted.

Looks like most of us were potty trained while we were still toddlers. Which is basically the opposite of what the media wants NTs to believe.

There's a huge difference between levels of autism. Not very many level 3s are here to respond to such a poll. They are the ones more likely to have been trained late.

I'm not as shy to admit this anymore, as I use to be. But I had issues with the toliet well after 3-5 years of age. Though I often wonder if it was merely obstinance or I was DID have a legit problem.

I was fully trained by 9 years old, if I remember right.
