Later Potty Training Spells Trouble for Children, Parents and Environment

Potty training in the United States is being completed later and later due in large part to the convenience of the disposable diaper -- which now comes in sizes large enough to accommodate 5- to 6-year-old children. The problem with this trend is that later training is more difficult for parents, creates emotional and health problems for children, and contributes billions of pounds of unnecessary diapers to our landfills. By bringing the power of their best-selling Baby Signs® Program to potty training, developmental psychologists Dr. Linda Acredolo and Dr. Susan Goodwyn are endeavoring to reverse this trend with a innovative new approach that makes it not only possible, but fun and easy, to both start and finish potty training before age 2.

We'll Always Have Paris: New Book Is Poignant Look at Small-Town Life in 1930s and 40s Paris, Illinois

Paris, Ill. is a long way from the more famous "city of light." But images of Dan Hall's childhood home burn just as brightly in "The Gooseberry Hedge: Growing up in America's Heartland in the 1930s and 40s," the new memoir from Outskirts Press that's a nostalgic trip back to small-town America.

Now available through the author's Web site at www.outskirtspress.com/gooseberry, "The Gooseberry Hedge" hearkens back to an era of milkmen, "huckster trucks" and railroad tramps - and their secret language of "marked houses" that meant a free meal ticket. Told in the form of discreet, bite-size tales, "The Gooseberry Hedge" showcases Hall's keen wit, poignant storytelling and a remarkable eye for detail. The picture that emerges from these "memory nuggets from the treasure chest" is of a small-town childhood before TV, video games and organized activities for kids--but still a heck of a lot of fun.
