Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do when someone’s gotta go. Even when it’s the parent who’s gotta go.

I have totally done this. More than once. I think it’s genius, myself, especially on camping trips. 🙂

ha ha. Forget trips. In our house, we only have one bathroom, and it is upstairs. When I’m looking after two twin toddlers downstairs and I have to pee, well, I just sit right down on that lil thing. I remind myself its okay because I’m modeling a desired behavior, just like the potty training books say.
Eep! Flashback alert…
My parents used to take my sister and I to Florida twice a year (a two day drive from Windsor, Ontario). We folded the back seats down in our van, plugged the sega into the mini tv/vcr combo they plugged into the cigarette lighter, had lots of blankets, and a potty (just in case.)
The thing is, my sister and I never used the potty, but my mom would crawl back every trip to use it at least twice. The potty is built to fit the bladder of a child, not a mom. Her pee filled up to the top and we were freaked out until the next rest stop that it would spill on us.
What a hilariously bad memory. Nightmare worthy even.
