1. Is it the right time??
2. Am I putting too much pressure on him??
3. Oh, he totally gets it!!!!!
4. This is a disaster. What were we thinking?!
5. Are we giving him too much candy?
6. Our child is a genius.

8. I think I just scarred our kid for life.
9. Do you have to go potty? Do you have to pee pee? Siege, what do you say when you have to pee pee? Do you have to go now? How about now??
10. "Mama, mama- pee pee!!"
