Catalog > EC and Potty Training
ELIMINATION COMMUNICATION is a gentle, healthy, responsive practice that encourages infants to signal their needs and parents to be receptive to those signals. EC promotes healthier attitudes towards elimination. No matter how intensively one practices it, EC alleviates the stress of toddler potty training, frees families from their dependence on smelly, expensive, environmentally damaging diapering practices and strengthens the attachment between parents and their babies. Dr. T. Berry Brazelton, who in the 1960s pioneered what has become the mainstream approach to toilet training, had this to say about Elimination Communication in 2005: "What I wish is that more women [families!] could be free enough to do it that way."Elimination Communication requires a comparatively small investment, so it saves your family a fortune that would otherwise be spent on diapers and laundry.
