0:00.0	Welcome to AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get supporting guidance through the chaos of parenting.
0:07.0	Here's your host, Child Therapist Natasha Daniels.
0:11.0	Well, hello there. I hope you are having a wonderful week. I want to talk to you today
0:16.8	about toileting, not potty training, but toileting issues. And this is not an age specific topic.
