Sensory Processing Disorder
And
Potty Training;
Go Together Like Oil And Water

 

Sensory Processing Disorder and potty training... a frustrating combination, a daunting task.  If you are the parent of a child with SPD you know that potty training is often difficult, to say the least.  Even though thousands of parents know this to be true, many don't really understand why. 

There are typical potty training struggles for any child trying to accomplish this important developmental task.  Then there are even more challenges that face both you and your child when trying to potty train if the child has SPD.  There are "simple" explanations for this, if you truly understand how Sensory Processing Disorders can and will affect a child.
