How Not to Train Your Son to Put on Underwear
Seems there are some things you should not use to help teach your son how to put on underwear. Like explaining there is a pe-nis hole in the front. No matter how many times I explain that it is to be used when you are pee'ing... he still has to show me that he got it on the right way by sticking it out the hole. Please, someone explain to me how to get him to stop that!!!!

Oh man.... we haven't gotten there yet. I'm sure we will. I spent my whole vaca with my son observing as I peed out my "no penis." Yeah.
Oh lordy... I got nuthin'. Have you asked Bou?
Tell him something will come along and bite it off! That is what got mine to stop doing it . . . but I am morbid that way. Oh, and we told him just to make sure the "tag is in the back"
Tee hee hee! I gave up with trying to teach the spawn how to use the penis hole while peeing. Elderspawn did the same thing yours do. Now, my kids just whip their pants down, undies and all. I figure as long as they don't hit them it's all
good :)
As long as there's a hole, a penis will find its way :-)
just tell them that "big boys don't show their mommies their pe-nis like that" or some such... I am sure that you have some lovely way of telling your boy that...
I really can't tell you how my parents got me to not do that either, I think that I just watched my father and emulated him NOT SHOWING my mother his, in our presence...
Sew all the holes shut! Heh heh heh!!!
Honestly, the way my boys knew was the picture went on the butt. Seriously. They had Sponge Bob, Bob the Builder, Elmo, Hulk underwear and the pictures go on the buns. I never showed them the hole...
But I think with time the novelty will go away. I really do.
Bou-I, too, tried explaining to my boys that the picture went on the butt. They came back with "But, then I can't see it." So until they were old enough to care, they wore them backwards. It didn't seem like a battle worth fighting. I wasn't the one uncomfortable. And I was just really glad when they would wear underwear. I had a very difficult time keeping them in anything at all when we were home.
I tried the 'tag to the back' but he was putting them on backwards. He would look for the tag and then try to put them on... he would not turn the underwear around. Hence the 'new' tactic. I am trying really hard not to react, other than to say "You only do that when you pee". But it is so darn funny. I am sure it will get old soon. Ohhh.. Maranda... he pulls his underwear down to pee... the little turkey.
I love the bite it off and the sew it shut... and I guess I should be happy that at least he wears underwear. Though I noticed Tater is started to run around without his. Sigh. Males.
What? You're not supposed to be sticking out all the time? Hold on, I gotta run to the bathroom...
