Underwear over a diaper helps kids feel "big" during night training

Gordon's 3 year-old son came up with this potty training hack all on his own:

Since my son associated wearing underwear with being a big boy (and had made the daytime transition pretty smoothly), he didn't want to wear a diaper at night. He (and his parents!) also didn't want a wet bed. So he put his underwear on over his diaper, and after a couple of dry weeks, the diapers went away.

And a diaper *over* the underwear makes the person who did it feel silly. Just ask my father about the last time he babysat my girls :).

How cool! I never though of this during the 1st round of potty training. Hopefully my memory can store this one away for a couple years...when round 2 begins!

mmmm its kinda strange ... looks like it will work ... have to implement it when time comes .. ^j^
