Nothing is simple for a toddler, so he replies, “No!” Of course, Parker is played by Scott in this video, who recreates his son in red footsie pajamas.
“Pee?” Scott asks again. As Parker, he replies, “No!” before crossing his arms and turning his head. He is standing in the bathroom and shaking his head. Oh, I went there more times than I can count!
“Parker, I think you should pee,” Scott calmly insisted, before Parker's character turned and urinated directly on the floor.Like a stream of pee (I hope it's just water!) flowing to the ground right in front of the toilet, Scott-as-Parker turned around and smiled shyly. Yeah! We always know when our kids have to pee, but it's not as simple as them just sitting on the potty and going to the toilet. Who would have thought that parent-child relationships would involve so many bodily fluids?!
Parents everywhere can relate. “Toddlers are a bit of a drunk 😂😂😂😂😂,” one person hilariously replied. Another shared: “Oh I remember it so well 😂😂😂.”
Others have given great advice as well. “Because they always want to go first… 🤣 I go from asking if they have to go to the bathroom to… ‘Do you want to go pee first? Or should I go first? I changed the question to “Are you okay?”” Lol! Game changer! ! 🏆🥇😂,” one person wrote. Hey, it's worth a try!
“Think about your reward system. Never go beyond bribes,” suggested another.
