I am cringing at the fact at the lack of compassion here. NOT all 4 year olds possess the physical capacity to listen to their body. My son was just past 4 when he potty trained because he had low tone in his muscles and didn't get the cues most of us have that we need to go potty. Even to this day, I sometimes have to force him to go - he doesn't have accidents if I don't, but he will have to run to the potty if I don't. Am I saying that all 4 years who aren't potty trained are like my son? Not even close, but please think before you pass judgment.
