Boys Peeing

There are very few times when Dads know more than Moms about the little ones. One of these rare cases is about boys and peeing. Couple big points about this:

1) if you have a boy, when you change their diaper pee will often come shooting out in a rainbow arc all over you and everything in the surrounding area. You always, always, always have to be ready to cover the little guy with a cloth or the coolest product in the world: peepee teepee







2) as they get older(potty-trained) they cannot always keep their pee straight. It is not a case of not pointing at the toilet. they are not being lazy or mean. it's just that they are part of a population that can't shoot straight. you may not know that because the older guys are sometimes better at cleaning up.

you can teach them to clean up but don't hold them accountable for whether they shoot straight in the first place.

  1. My little guy shoots wide left. Hence, the caulk where our toilet meets the floor is now a lovely burnt orange color.
