Don't dispair!  I felt the same way about Gareth 'til just before 
Christmas.  This boy, who will be 4 in March, didn't want to know 
anything about potty-training.  I mean I had visions of him doing his 
A-levels in Pull-ups!  DH and I gave up long ago trying to get him to 
use the toilet as he would purposely defy us, so we left it up to 
Nature.  Well, Nature only got off its backend in December, when 
Sonny Dearest was 3 3/4.  It *will* happen...it just might take a 
while.  Oh, and the wait *was* worth it, as his daytime control is 
really good.

ROTFLMAO!!  Oh, the joy kids provide when they don't have adult hang-
ups yet.  By the way, what was your answer? :)
