Toilet training and saying goodbye to nappies is a major milestone for children and parents. But for some children it doesn't happen as naturally as it does for others.

What is considered a "normal" age for toilet training and dry nights?

What are the early warning signs of problems and what strategies can parents use to overcome issues?
