I absolutely despise potty-training. For me, it is the most terrifying and difficult part of parenting. I hate it. And I still have another kiddo to train. I want my eldest to have a good grasp before I start on the second. I don't think my nerves can handle two kiddos peeing on the furniture.
My Princess refuses to go. She gets distracted or is having too much fun and doesn't want to stop and take a potty break. As a result, we constantly ask her if she has to go and she screams "No!" We've tried the timer thing , bribes with treats, and have a routine of going before and after bed/nap and outings. Some days are great, others are AWFUL.

Nope, no advice, no nothing...potty training is hell, there's no way around it.
